The Louisiana Heritage Festival was created by George Wein, an American jazz promoter, pianist, and producer. Although just 350 attended the first Jazz Fest in 1970, featuring legends like Mahalia Jackson, Duke Ellington, and Fats Domino, it now attracts hundreds of thousands annually. The festival celebrates both local and international talent at the historic Fair Grounds Race Course.

Attendees can enjoy performances ranging from traditional and contemporary jazz, blues, and gospel to R&B, rock, funk, Cajun, zydeco, Afro-Caribbean, folk, Latin, rap, country, and bluegrass.

More than just a music festival, Jazz Fest is a celebration of New Orleans itself. It’s a vibrant party that rivals Mardi Gras, drawing visitors from around the globe to experience the city’s soul-stirring music, delicious food, and warm hospitality.
