Be sure to show up thirsty and hungry for the National Fried Chicken Fest in New Orleans! Wear your stretchy pants and come indulge in some of the best fried chicken, biscuits and sides in the South, while grooving to great music and soaking up Southern culture. Voted Number 6 on the USA Today 10 Best Readers’ Choice Awards List of top Speciality Food Festivals, this is a food fest you won’t want to miss.
Nothing goes with fried chicken better than ice-cold sweet tea, and Luzianne will be there for it! As a proud festival sponsor, we’ll be pouring the love and spillin’ the tea at our famous Luzianne Lounge, a sociable spot where you can sit for a spell, enjoy free sweet tea, and spin our prize wheel for free Luzianne koozies, bandanas and stickers. Plus, it’s happy hour all weekend long with our specially created “Ice Pick” sweet tea and vodka cocktail, available for purchase at drink stands throughout the festival. Cheers!
At the Luzianne Lounge, spin our Prize Wheel to win free Luzianne merchandise.
