The New Orleans Jazz Museum, in partnership with NOLAXNOLA, proudly announces its 2025

Hispanic Heritage Month programming—a dynamic celebration of Latin, Caribbean, and Afro-

Latin musical traditions that have profoundly shaped the sound of New Orleans jazz. Running

from September 16 through October 25, the museum will host a series of free live

performances, spotlighting both local and international talent who continue to carry forward

these rich, multicultural legacies.

Join us for weekly live music performances in honor of Hispanic Heritage Month. Concerts will

take place in our third-floor Performance Center every Friday at 2:00 PM, with two special

balcony shows in the museum’s courtyard on Tuesday, September 16, and Tuesday, October

21, starting at 5:00 PM. All events are free and open to the public. Seating is limited and

available on a first-come, first-served basis. Learn more about our event policies.
