The 2019 Treme/7th Ward Arts & Culture Festival returns to the space beneath the Claiborne bridge this Memorial Day weekend. The festival celebrates the history, traditions, and culture of two of the oldest, most notable neighborhoods in the United States. These vibrant and culturally rich neighborhoods have spawned decades of talent and pride from their streets, including many of this year's performers. 

This year's music lineup includes James Andrews, Corey Henry & the Treme Funktet, Kermit Ruffins, Treme Brass Band, and many more. Check out the full performance schedule below.
