Each year, the French Quarter Festival provides free entertainment to the city, with more than 150 musical performances on sixteen stages throughout the French Quarter over three days, bringing tourists and locals together. The FQF will have more than 70 food and beverage booths this year, located in Jackson Square, Woldenberg Riverfront Park and the U.S. Mint.

The FQF is dedicated to supporting the local music community by showcasing only local musicians on its eighteen outdoor stages, proudly featuring every genre of local music including gospel, jazz, funk, classical, Cajun, zydeco, and brass band sounds. Some of this year's artists include The Radiators, Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue, Irvin Mayfield, Rebirth Brass Band, Amanda Shaw & The Cute Guys, Soul Rebels, Big Chief Bo Dollis Jr. and the Wild Magnolias, and many more.
