Top Venues for Cajun and Zydeco Music in New Orleans
Though Cajun and zydeco music are not native to New Orleans (they’re rooted in Acadiana, the area around Lafayette), they’ve made a solid and lasting impression on the Big Easy’s musical scene. You’ll see lots of Cajun and zydeco bands at all major New Orleans festivals, including Jazz Fest, the French Quarter Festival, and (obviously) the Cajun-Zydeco Festival.
