Tremé Creole Gumbo Festival
to
Louis Armstrong Park 701 North Rampart Street, New Orleans, Louisiana 70116
Back in the day, the Tremé neighborhood was the stomping grounds of the city's free people of color, and since the earliest days the area has churned out countless cultural contributions, including Creole food and brass band music.
The annual Creole Gumbo Festival celebrates this legacy, promising over a dozen culinary wizards offering their own carefully-curated takes on the city's finest gumbos, with the annual vegan gumbo contest tipping its hat to those who have gone green.
Live music will feature local favorites like Da Truth Brass Band, Brass-a-Holics, Naydja CoJoe & the Lagniappe Section, Charmaine Neville, and The Soul Rebels.
11 am–8 pm Saturday and Sunday at Louis Armstrong Park and Congo Square. Free. tremegumbofest.com.
