Gretna Fest returns this fall, running Friday, October 3 through Sunday, October 5. What began in 1994 as a small community gathering has grown into one of Louisiana’s largest festivals, drawing crowds with live music, food, arts and crafts, and family-friendly activities.

“Gretna Fest is always a fantastic celebration—not just for the City of Gretna, but for the entire New Orleans region,” said Mayor Constant. “We’re thrilled about the talent we’ve secured for this year and I’m looking forward to sharing the lineup soon. We’re ready to build excitement and get everyone looking ahead to Gretna Fest 2025.”

Performers include Tonic, Better Than Ezra, Collective Soul, The Yat Pack and more.
