What is the Offbeat Jazz Fest Concierge?

The Offbeat Jazz Fest Concierge is a free tool to preview every Jazz Fest act with video, build a conflict-free schedule with walking times between stages, and plan evening shows across New Orleans.

What are Jazz Fest cubes?

Jazz Fest cubes are the visual grid schedule showing all stages as columns and time slots as rows. The Cube View lets you see the entire day at a glance and spot conflicts between acts you want to see.

How do I plan my Jazz Fest schedule?

Preview and rate acts in the Concierge, then use the schedule builder. It automatically resolves conflicts between overlapping acts at different stages, accounts for walking times, and shows your full day as a timeline.

Are there shows after Jazz Fest at night?

Yes! New Orleans venues host hundreds of evening shows during Jazz Fest. The Concierge shows after-hours events with transit times from the festival grounds, so you can plan your whole night.
