NEW ORLEANS — Jazz Fest planners have just shared the entire music schedule for the mid-October event, and single-day tickets are now available for purchase online.
Previously, the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival announced a portion of the 2021 line-up that included Dead & Company, Foo Fighters, The Beach Boys, Ludacris, Wu-Tang Clan, and others.
Single-day tickets, general admission three-day passes, VIP packages and other travel packages are now available on the festival’s website.
The lineup, sectioned by day, allows prospective festival-goers to pick which day to attend to see specific artists rather than purchase tickets for the entire festival.
The New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival is one of the biggest events of the year for New Orleans, with hundreds of thousands of people descending on the city to listen to dozens of musical acts.
The Jazz Fest was canceled last year because of coronavirus concerns. This year, the festival has been pushed back to October, with musicians set to perform over two weekends from Oct. 8-17.
Festival planners said they have been working closely with city and state officials to make sure the event is safe for all attendees and participants. The festival will be presented in accordance with applicable COVID-19 public health guidelines at the time of the event, organizers said.
