French Quarter Festival, New Orleans, LA

The South’s largest free music festival, the French Quarter Festival, features 13 stages, hundreds of musicians, and a number of musical genres – international, blues, rock, swing and, of course, jazz. All other events (from the art show to the children’s activities) are free, and festival-goers can enjoy the Crescent City’s fine food during the World’s Largest Jazz Brunch, a signature event featuring authentic local cuisine from renowned area restaurants. A celebration of music and food in the French Quarter of New Orleans, the French Quarter Festival is a great prelude to New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival.
