The inaugural Nola Funk Fest will feature performances from 18 of New Orleans’ top funk acts on the grounds of the New Orleans Jazz Museum October 20 – 22. The Meters’ Experience feat. Leo Nocentelli of the Meters, Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Irma Thomas and George Porter Jr. & Runnin’ Pardners top the 2023 Nola Funk Fest lineup.

Krasno Moore Project, Bucktown Allstars, Ivan Neville, Ghost-Note, Big Sam’s Funky Nation, Erica Falls & Vintage Soul and The New Orleans Suspects & Maggie Koerner are more of the acts aboard for the festival presented by The Louisiana Music & Heritage Experience. Performances will take place across two stages during the three-day event.

“This festival is a party to kick off the public announcement of The Louisiana Music & Heritage Experience, a grand scale museum dedicated to our State’s rich musical history,” wrote organizers of the Nola Funk Fest. “We believe that Louisiana’s music history needs to be preserved to educate, inspire and empower!”

In addition to the music, attendees can enjoy programming that will preview the museum’s offerings including a pair of symposiums in which musical-flavored oral histories will document the evolution of blues and jazz into R&B, rock and funk. Plus, the New Orleans Jazz Museum will be hosting the I Found My Thrill: The Music and Artistry of Fats Domino and Dave Bartholomew exhibit during the Nola Funk Fest.
