Jazz Fest: A New Orleans Story

A celebration of New Orleans and the 50th Anniversary of the Jazz festival. It is a spirited and happy film even if it meanders off the path a time or two. If you enjoy Jazz or NO then this should be on the watch list. If you enjoy both, then this is can't miss. As someone who isn't even jazz or Crescent City adjacent, perhaps this was a bit of a reach. The music is numbing and immersive. Jazz is expansive and is adept at bringing people together. This film is no different. Final Score: 7.1/10

Attended the festival in 2019. Enjoyed learning more about the history of the festival and the culture of NOLA. Entertaining and brought back great memories!

Excellent, well-paced documentary that immerses its viewer into the Fest,

Should have been a six part series.

Great music, great history documentary and toe tapping fun

Heartwarming and memorable.

I have been a Jazz Fest patron. Its an experience you want to repeat. You want to take your friends to share. The movie blends the roots of New Orleans with the appreciative popular acts an conveys it well

Incredible music documentary. I jumped up and shouted when I saw the snippet of a performance by Professor Longhair, loved the B B King and being able to be exposed to new music which I would normally novel be exposed to. HIGHLY RECOMMENDEDq

Really gives the feeling of Jazz Fest - hit all the important parts!

Great Documentary. Shows the Greatness of New Orleans and Louisiana Music
