Second Line Parades are a longstanding New Orleans tradition. Brass bands take to the street, play and march. Onlookers who followed along to enjoy the music were known as the second line.

As a nod to the historic jazz culture of the Crescent City, we’ll be hosting our annual Second Line Parade down Main Street all the way to Telluride Town Park on Sunday, August 14 at noon. Join The Hooligans Brass Band, the Festival staff, attendees, and festival artists for a celebratory kick-off to the final day of the 2022 Telluride Jazz Festival.

The parade starts at 12 pm from Elks Park (located across from the courthouse on Colorado Avenue).
