Essence Festival New Orleans

Join us for the Black Women's Bus Trip of the year. We are heading back to Essense Festival in New Orleans for the first time since COVID. We've also been able to make the trip affordable, starting as little as $700 per person for 4 days and 3 nights of fun.

The Essence Festival, known as "the party with a purpose", is an annual music festival started in 1995 as a one-time event to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Essence, a magazine aimed primarily towards African-American women. It's currently an annual event celebrating African American women. It became the largest African-American culture and music event in the United States.
