New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival

Where: New Orleans, LA
When: April 27-May 6
The headliners: Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and the Foo Fighters
Why we're excited: Seeing live music in NOLA is unlike any other place in the country. While this festival has got its roots in jazz, there's enough classic rock, funk, and soul to get any music lover raring to go.
