About
From October 23 to 25, 2026, the New Orleans Jazz Festival transforms the Goutte d'Or neighborhood into a vibrant Louisiana hub. Hosted at 360 Paris Music Factory, this cultural gathering celebrates the deep historical ties between New Orleans and Paris through jazz performances, masterclasses, and local cuisine. Featuring renowned artists such as Grayhawk Perkins, Robin Barnes, and James Andrews alongside NOLA French Connection, the festival offers an authentic experience for music lovers. Please note that this event is strictly for adults 18 and over, and while most sessions require a ticket, select concerts and masterclasses are free to attend upon reservation.
For three days, the spirit of New Orleans settles in the heart of La Goutte d'Or.
Concerts, masterclasses, gastronomy, a Second Line parade, meet-and-greets, and American football will make up this new edition of the New Orleans Jazz Festival at La Goutte d'Or, organized from Friday, October 23 to Sunday, October 25, 2026, at the 360 Paris Music Factory.
Supported by the Au Fil des Voix association, in partnership with the New Orleans Jazz Museum, the festival celebrates the cultural ties that unite New Orleans and the Parisian neighborhood of La Goutte d'Or.
Separated by nearly 8,000 kilometers, these two territories share a history deeply marked by encounters, migrations, and blending. Music, gastronomy, architecture, and popular cultures bear witness to this diversity, which over time has become a true collective wealth.
Created in 2023, the New Orleans Jazz Festival at La Goutte d'Or brings this natural brotherhood to life by inviting iconic artists and figures from New Orleans culture each year.
For its 2026 edition, the festival will notably host Grayhawk Perkins, Robin Barnes, and James Andrews, accompanied by the NOLA French Connection.
