New Orleans Jazz Fest 2023 adjusts schedule due to weather delay.

The 2023 New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival delayed its opening due to thunderstorms, resulting in the cancellation of the first acts of the day on each stage and shortened set times for many of the second acts. The festival's schedule "cubes" were updated with the new times. Saturday's rained-out acts included the Kinfolk Brass Band, Darcy Malone & the Tangle, Guitar Slim Jr., Feufollet, and the Southern University Jazzy Jags. Despite the weather, fest-goers eagerly awaited Dead & Company's performance at 4:30 pm.
