New Orleans has faced severe withdrawals
throughout this pandemic when it comes to live music and engaging with the
community. Being affected by the pandemic has been depressing, especially for
the live music community right now as around this time of year, people from all
over would be traveling down to our city to attend the yearly, outstanding
musical event Jazz Fest. But this doesn't mean we still can't celebrate on our
terms. Here is a list of all food spots around town that will be serving Jazz
Fest food during what would have been Jazz Fest weekend. These dishes will make
you reminisce on the good time spent at Jazz Fest and how good it will be when
it comes in October! Make sure to enjoy the food and get ready for some Jazz
Fest vibes!
