Three days of Music, BBQ, and Art!

The 18th annual Crescent City Blues and BBQ Festival features three days filled with live blues and jazz performances, a local art market, and some of the best BBQ vendors throughout the Crescent City! The festival takes place at the beautiful Lafayette Square Park, which is bordered by Poydras Street and St. Charles Avenue. The park is located across from the historical Gallier Hall, the former City Hall, and another great site for music throughout the years.
