It looks like the third time will be the charm as the 2024 New Orleans Jazz & Heritage festival prepares for The Rolling Stones.
FILE - The Rolling Stones perform at a celebration for the release of their new album,"Hackney Diamonds," Oct. 19, 2023, in New York. The 2024 New Orleans Jazz & Heritage festival, which spans two weekends, was set to open Thursday, April 25, 2024, with dozens of acts big and small playing daily on 14 stages spread throughout the historic Fair Grounds race course. The Stones play next Thursday, May 2, and tickets for that day of music have long been sold out.
“The talent is great, the weather is projected to be good and people's expectations are going to be met,” Davis said. Acts on the festival's 14 stages usually play simultaneously beginning when gates open at 11 a.m. and continuing until the music ends at 7 p.m. But the other stages will shut down next week when the Stones take the stage.
Much of Jazz Fest celebrates the Indigenous music and culture of New Orleans and Louisiana but the music encompasses nearly every style imaginable: blues, R&B, gospel, Cajun, Zydeco, Afro-Caribbean, folk, Latin, rock, rap, contemporary and traditional jazz, country, bluegrass and everything in between.
