Michael Arnone’s Crawfish Festival To Return In 2025 After 2-Year Hiatus

Michael Arnone's Crawfish Fest returns May 30 – June 1, 2025 to the Sussex County Fairgrounds in Augusta, New Jersey. The three-day celebration of the best food and music that Louisana and New Orleans have to offer is back following a two-year hiatus.

Terrance Simien & The Zydeco Experience, Marcia Ball, Southern Avenue, Bonerama and Rockin’ Dopsie Jr and the Zydeco Twisters top the initial lineup for Michael Arnone’s 32nd Annual Crawfish Fest. Saturday and Sunday main stage headliners will be revealed soon.

Other acts set to perform across the music, food and camping festival’s two stages include Corey Harris, Carolyn Wonderland, Maggie Koerner, Eddie 9V, Amis Du Teche, Johnny Sketch and The Dirty Notes, United By Music USA, Ocean Avenue Stompers and Cold Hill. Additional lineup announcements are forthcoming.

Besides the music, the festival lives up to its name by offering authentic Louisana cuisine that is hard to come by in the Northeast. Festivalgoers can purchase Michael Arnone’s Jambalaya, Boiled Crawfish, Oyster, Shrimp, and Catfish Po-Boys, Crawfish Etouffee, Red Beans, Boudin, Grilled Oysters, Southern Fried Chicken and other Louisiana regional dishes.
