The organizers can push through and the audience can buy tickets but what happens when the performers pull out?


Wait to buy your tix at the gates. If many of the performers bow out, then just have a good weekend in NOLA outside of Jazz Fest.

I think it cancels sooner rather than later. Just can’t say it’s at risk til it’s gone. I’d bet they explore date changes and we hear something within about 2 weeks.

About to lose more conventions, and city has more cases in the pipeline.

With the virus trending as it is I'd be shocked if French Quarter Fest and Jazz Fest aren't cancelled.

Yes, it sucks, but that'll be the reality IMO.

I volunteer out at Jazz Fest every day, every year. I'll have to go hang out at Liuzza's by the track seven days straight just to get the feel of it.

Mayor Cantrell announced today throughout the state of emergency all events would be cancelled. This would include jazz fest if it lasted that long.
