We Belong Here has announced the full lineup for its debut New Orleans edition, set to take place at Woldenberg Riverfront Park on November 13–15, 2026. The boutique festival brand, which originated in Miami and has since expanded to New York City and Tampa, is now bringing its signature experience to Louisiana for the first time.
Headliners are spread across all three days of the event. ODESZA will open the weekend on Friday night, with Carl Cox and Steve Angello both performing on Saturday. Sunday’s closing headlining slot goes to Sammy Virji, the fast-rising artist who has been generating significant momentum in the dance music world over the past year.
The supporting lineup fills out a broad cross-section of contemporary electronic music. BLOND:ISH, Max Styler, Chase West, Simon Doty, Coco & Breezy, Supertaste, Andre Power, Apex Martin, and Blu De Tiger are all confirmed to appear, spanning melodic house and beyond.
Co-Founder Charles Hochfelder addressed the choice of location directly. “Music is woven into the fabric of New Orleans,” he said. “We’re excited to bring dance music to the French Quarter at this level and create something that feels immersive, intentional, and rooted in the spirit of the city.” In keeping with previous editions of the festival, We Belong Here New Orleans is also expected to feature culinary options and art installations alongside the music programming, though further details on those elements have yet to be confirmed.
The event was first teased in May, building early anticipation among dance music fans in the region. Presale registration opens Thursday, June 11, at 12pm CT / 1pm ET, with the general sale to follow. Passes are available through the official We Belong Here website.
