Beignet Fest Proves There's More Than One Way to Beignet

Take a sweet break from the same-old, same-old and join us on the Festival Grounds in New Orleans City Park for the annual Beignet Fest. The powdered sugar will fly on Saturday, November 16, 2024 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. When it comes to fall festivals in New Orleans, this is one you donut want to pass up! (Sorry.)

Of course, there’s more than one way to beignet. There will be traditional beignets covered in powdered sugar along with more savory options filled and topped with seafood, cheese and more. Come get your fill of dozens of beignet dishes from some of New Orleans' best restaurants and food trucks.

This free New Orleans festival will also offer live bands (see lineup), an Artist Market, a Kid's Village, and a Beer Garden. Plus, you’ll be beigneting for a good cause: Proceeds from the event benefit kids on the spectrum. Learn more.
