The New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival has announced the lineup to their 2026 festival. The 54th edition of the popular New Orleans event, commonly known as “Jazzfest”, will take place from April 23 to May 3, 2026. The 11-day affair boasts an eclectic set list of jazz, blues, and RnB legends, but the headliners seem to lean more on the “heritage” side of the festival than the “jazz.”

Headliners for this year’s festival include jazz greats such as the Eagles, Stevie Nicks, Rod Stewart, and Kings of Leon. For those interested in more experimental jazz, the festival also features nine-time CMA award winning country artist Lainey Wilson, Talking Heads legend David Byrne, and the “Sprung” legend himself T-Pain.

The festival is organized by the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Foundation, a New Orleans-based nonprofit dedicated to “promote, preserve, perpetuate, and encourage the music, culture and heritage of communities in Louisiana.” The organization has partnered with the oil company, Shell USA, since the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in 2006. Shell will remain the festival’s presenting sponsor through 2030.
