Congo Square New World Rhythms Festival

 

New Orleans celebrates our African roots at the Congo Square Rhythms Festival, with live music, soul food, a wonderful arts market and a kids area. 

Come see Mardi Gras Indians, watch traditional African dancing, and hear New Orleans' favorite brass bands and players of jazz, soul-funk, Latin jazz and West African highlife music.

The Congo Square Rhythms Festival is produced and presented by the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Foundation and will take place at Armstrong Park at the same time as the Tremé Creole Gumbo Festival. View the entertainment line-up and learn more about their mission here.
