We Belong Here Announces New Orleans Debut Lineup

We Belong Here has officially rounded out the lineup for its highly anticipated New Orleans festival debut, adding a third stage anchored by a weekend-long takeover from the local collective Set De Flo, alongside more than 30 regional artists. The event is set to take place at the scenic Goldring Woldenberg Riverfront Park from November 13-15, 2026.

These new additions build upon an already impressive bill revealed earlier this summer, which is headlined by ODESZA (DJ Set), Carl Cox, Steve Angello, Sammy Virji, BLOND:ISH, Max Styler, and ChaseWest. By integrating extensive local programming, the festival aims to deepen its roots in the city while honoring the vibrant dance music community that defines New Orleans.

The centerpiece of this local initiative is the stage takeover by Set De Flo, a New Orleans-born underground dance collective and label that has been a cornerstone of the city’s house and techno scene since 2017. Founded by DJ/producer KILOBAUUD and co-produced by vick trochez, the collective focuses on celebrating the Black origins of dance music while providing a platform for emerging talent. The stage will feature designs by local artists Kristina Kay Robinson and Mike Hazel, with performances hosted by KILOBAUUD, VICKTROLA, TOPAZ TEARS, and CHURCHWIIG.

“Set De Flo has always been a space for highlighting the underground and Black counterculture in New Orleans and across the South,” said KILOBAUUD. “This takeover gives us an opportunity to provide a platform for the incredible underground house and techno artists in our city while continuing to build the infrastructure that artists and communities need here in the South.”

The festival will showcase over 30 New Orleans-based artists throughout the weekend, including Avea De Lune, Breakline, Bouffant Bouffant, C’est Funk, C-Lab, Da$on, DJ87, Dr. Romance, Flamingeaux, Josh Heller, Kristina Kay Robinson, Legatron Prime, Merger, Mike Hvzel, Mr. Bones, Nile Ashton, Qbaby Worldwide, Sana, Shlomo, Sillva, and Xsomnia B2B DJ Hondo.

Marshall Jefferson Joins the Main Stage

In a significant addition to the 360 Main Stage, Chicago house pioneer Marshall Jefferson has been added to the roster. As the producer behind the seminal 1986 anthem ‘Move Your Body,’ Jefferson brings a direct connection to the roots of house music, perfectly complementing the modern innovators driving the genre forward.

The festival schedule is packed with talent: Friday will be headlined by ODESZA’s DJ set, while Saturday features a three-hour sunset performance from Carl Cox and a set from Swedish House Mafia’s Steve Angello. Sammy Virji will close out the weekend on Sunday, joined by a supporting cast including BLOND:ISH, Max Styler, ChaseWest, Andre Power, Apex Martin, Coco & Breezy, Madison Park, Robbie Doherty, Simon Doty, Styro, and Supertaste.

Set against the backdrop of the Mississippi River and the historic French Quarter, this event marks a major expansion for the We Belong Here brand following successful iterations in Miami, New York, and Tampa Bay. Attendees can expect the brand’s signature 360-degree stage design to create an immersive experience unlike any other in the city.

We Belong Here New Orleans runs November 13-15, 2026, at Goldring Woldenberg Riverfront Park. Tickets and travel packages are available now at webelonghere.world/neworleans.
