April 21 - April 22, 2023. Most visitors only know Kenner, Louisiana from the street signs near the Louis Armstrong International Airport, on their way in to New Orleans. Little do they know that it is one of the state’s richest areas of Italian heritage! “The city of Kenner at one time was the center of the community for many Italian families,” said Nick Congemi, Retired Kenner Police Chief and Chair of Festa Italiana.
The family-reunion-style day was inspired by the customs shared by many Kenner residents. Due to unforeseen circumstances, the 2022 festival was cancelled. This year, it returns with free admission at the gate! At the heart of the fest is food, of course, and Louisiana Italians know how to serve up a tasty blend of cultural influences from the Mediterranean to the Gulf of Mexico.
