Last spring, New Orleans was the home to a brand new event that harnessed all the best that the famous city has to offer. NOLA Crawfish Festival brought together some of the finest New Orleans musicians, such as George Porter Jr., Ivan Neville, Jon Cleary, Nigel Hall, and Anders Osborne, and combined them with the crawfish mastery of the NOLA Crawfish King, Chris “Shaggy” Davis, and the top-notch beers made at NOLA Brewery and Tap Room, for what turned out to be three incredible days of fun, music, and local cuisine. The festival was the perfect way for people to spend the “daze between” weekends of New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, creating a mini-Jazz-Fest vibe that kept fans dancing all week long while fueling themselves with the delicious energy that came from the cuisine.
The event has released a recap video, which you can see below. At the end of the video, dates for a 2017 edition are announced, so fans can experience this festival in all of its glory on May 1st, 2nd, and 3rd of this coming year as it returns to the NOLA Brewery and Tap Room for three more days of funk, food, and fun.
We’ll see you in May at the NOLA Crawfish Festival!
