PO-BOY FESTIVAL
The Oak Street Merchants, Residents and Property Owners will hold the 16th Annual Oak Street Po-Boy Festival, presented by Tony Chachere’s, on Sunday, October 27th, 2024 from 10A to 6P between the 8100-8700 blocks of Oak Street.
The festival will once again host 40 food vendors and beverage vendors, live music on multiple stages, Saints Game watching, VIP Area, Arts Market, Kids Zone, sponsor-activations, opening parade, and a po-boy competition juried by celebrity judges. The festival continues to maintain its status as one of the most unique and exciting events of the year. Each fall, since 2007, New Orleanians have set aside a day to honor the humble and historic Po-Boy sandwich where upwards of 50,000 strong come to eat, drink, dance and shop the historic and vibrant Oak Street.
