Brass Passes this year will only work for seven of the eight days of Jazz Fest. Brass Passes won’t be usable on Thursday May 2, which is going to be set aside as a commemorative day for the 50th anniversary of the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival.

 

It’s unclear if people who have already purchased their 2019 Brass Passes for the festival will be able to use their Brass Pass for entry into the WWOZ Tent on May 2 this year, as WWOZ management is still working out details with Festival Productions, the Jazz Fest producers.

 

Reportedly, May 2 will have a separate, higher ticket price as it’s scheduled to feature big-name performers, none of whom have yet been confirmed, although the clear front-runner has been rumored to be the Rolling Stones.

 

Who else should play on that day?
