Beignet Fest is back and sweeter than ever! The beloved fall festival returns to New Orleans City Park’s Festival Grounds on Saturday, November 15, 2025, with a star-studded music lineup that’s sure to bring the flavor and the funk.
This year’s headliners? None other than Marc Broussard, the soulful Louisiana-born singer-songwriter, and the legendary Rebirth Brass Band, one of the Crescent City’s most iconic acts. Also gracing the stage are local favorites like Jeffrey “Jellybean” Alexander presents KINDRED, the energetic and ever-entertaining Imagination Movers, and performers from The Prism Project, an inclusive arts program that uplifts artists of all abilities.
Presented by the New Orleans Tourism and Culture Fund, this year’s Beignet Fest promises fun for the whole family with toe-tapping tunes, kid-friendly performers, and, of course, delicious variations of New Orleans’ most iconic pastry.
Tickets are now on sale, with three tiers to choose from:
- General Admission: $25 per person, but early birds can snag tickets for just $15 now through July 11. As always, kids 10 and under get in free!
- The Ruby Slipper VIP Experience: This popular option includes a shaded tent with premium stage views, signature Ruby Slipper cocktails, dedicated restrooms, and plenty of games and giveaways. VIP tickets sold out last year, so act fast!
- The NEW Lagniappe Lounge: For festival-goers looking for an elevated experience, this exclusive area near the stage features complimentary Abita beer, craft cocktails, soft drinks, water, and access to private restrooms—all while supporting the Beignet Fest Foundation, which helps families of children with autism.
Beyond the music and beignets, the festival is currently accepting food vendor applications—a perfect opportunity for local eateries to showcase their sweet and savory spins on the classic treat. Artist Market applications will open later this summer.
