TRNSCND Festival is a two-day, multi-genre celebration of music, art, and community set along the New Orleans riverfront. Created by a collective of local and touring artists, the festival blends EDM, hip-hop, funk, hick-hop, indie rock, and downtempo sounds into a high-energy experience that feels uniquely New Orleans.
Expect a creative world built with massive LED walls, projection-mapped installations, immersive art zones, and live painters whose works support the Echelon Global Fund — a nonprofit dedicated to youth music and creative development programs. A portion of festival proceeds will also be donated to the fund to help grow the city’s arts ecosystem.
TRNSCND Festival takes place on Friday, March 13, 2025, starting at 3:00 PM and going ’til 12:00 AM. The festival continues on Saturday, March 14, 2025, starting at 3:00 PM and going ’til 12:00 AM.Â
Hosted at Mardi Gras World (1380 Port of New Orleans Pl). The riverside venue features massive indoor and outdoor stages overlooking the skyline.
