Celebrate the revolutionary spirit of Bastille Day with Ziggy Marley and Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue in a rollicking evening of high-energy reggae, funk, blues, and jazz. A nine-time Grammy winner, Emmy winner, and humanitarian activist, Marley extends his father’s reggae legacy to new frontiers, fusing its traditional sound with other genres, modern sounds, and new recording techniques. He is making his first appearance at the festival. A Grammy-winning NOLA icon, Trombone Shorty performed America the Beautiful at the 2025 Super Bowl in New Orleans, leads his own Mardi Gras parade atop a giant float crafted in his likeness, was part of the inaugural class inducted in the NOLA Walk of Fame and has taken over the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival's hallowed final set.
