Beignet Fest is an annual event held in New Orleans City Park that celebrates the beloved beignet pastry while supporting a worthy cause. The festival offers a wide variety of beignet dishes from local restaurants and food trucks, as well as live music performances, a Kids Village, Artist Market, and Beer Garden, making it a fun-filled day for the whole family.

Proceeds from Beignet Fest benefit the Beignet Fest Foundation, which aims to empower the lives of children with autism and their families by providing grants to local nonprofit organizations that offer quality programs for children with developmental delays. Founded with a mission to fill the gap in programs for children on the autism spectrum, Beignet Fest is not only a delicious culinary experience but also a meaningful event that brings the community together.
