The 2023 Coors Light Birds Nest lineup has added another premier headliner to its four-night lineup as Machine Gun Kelly has committed to perform at the Friday, Feb. 10 show. The popular concert series will take place over four nights (Feb. 8-11) during WM Phoenix Open week, tickets are available now and can be purchased online at www.coorslightbirdsnest.com.

Machine Gun Kelly is an atomic force in music, entertainment, film and fashion. In 2020, the Cleveland, Ohio native eclipsed genre expectations releasing a Rock/Pop Punk album, the widely acclaimed Tickets to My Downfall. The platinum album topped the Billboard 200 and became his first No. 1 effort. Tickets to My Downfall landed 18 tracks on the Hot Rock Songs chart and spawned two No. 1 songs on the alternative side with “bloody valentine” and “my ex’s best friend,” which both went platinum. In 2022 he followed with Mainstream Sellout, his second album to hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 cementing his status as a chart-topping artist. As of 2022, MGK has had a record 45 entries on Hot Rock & Alternative Songs, the most among any solo artist. The genre-bending musician has amassed numerous awards over his career “Favorite Rock Artist for the 2021 AMAs, Top Rock Album and Top Rock Artist” for the 2021 Billboard Music Awards, 2020 and 2021 MTV VMA’s for “Best Alternative Video”, a 2021 iHeart Radio Award for “Alternative Rock Album of the Year” and 2022’s “Alternative Artist of the Year.”


Coors Light Birds Nest general admission tickets will start at $85, while VIP tickets are available starting at $285 each and provide exclusive access to an enhanced VIP area where guests are treated to complimentary food and drinks and access to a premium viewing area for the shows. Organizers encourage fans to buy their tickets early as ticket prices will increase as the event draws closer.

“The demand for tickets this year has already been through the roof, with sellout shows already for Jason Aldean and The Chainsmokers, we expect Machine Gun Kelly to sell out quickly as well,” said 2023 WM Phoenix Open Tournament Chairman Pat Williams.”
