Michael Arnone’s Annual Crawfish Fest Returns for 32nd Year

Michael Arnone’s Annual Crawfish Fest will take place May 30-June 1, 2025 at the Sussex County Fairgrounds in Augusta, New Jersey. Michael Arnone’s love and promotion of Louisiana’s culture began when he left Baton Rouge for work as a Union Electrician in 1985. His Annual Crawfish Fest, as well as his Jambalaya Mix, Jambalaya Tour and promotional work on the Big Easy Cruise are all ways he continues to give back to Louisiana. The festival, which began in 1989 as a small crawfish boil, has expanded into a full-blown festival with nearly 20,000 guests per year who enjoy the best food and music straight from New Orleans

The 2025 festival will present music on two stages and include artists such as five-time GRAMMY nominee Marcia Ball, two-time GRAMMY winner Terrance Simien and the Zydeco Experience and many more. The initial lineup also includes: 

  • Southern Avenue
  • Bonerama
  • Rockin’ Dopsie, Jr. & the Zydeco Twisters
  • Corey Harris
  • Carolyn Wonderland
  • Maggier Koerner
  • Eddie 9V
  • Amis Du Teche
  • Johnny Sketch and The Dirty Notes
  • Ocean Avenue Stompers
  • United By Music USA
  • Cold Hill

Headliners for Saturday and Sunday’s main stage will be announced soon.

The Louisiana musical talent pairs perfectly with the authentic regional cuisine that is usually difficult to find in the Northeast. Jambalaya, Boiled Crawfish, Po-Boys, Crawfish Etouffee, Red Beans, Boudin, Grilled Oysters, Southern Fried Chicken and more will tantalize taste buds. 

Tickets are on sale now and range in price from $50-$8,500. Day tickets, Saturday/Sunday Combo Tickets, 3-day camping/admission tickets, limited RV Electric and water hookups are available. Campers are treated to Camper Only sets on Friday and Saturday evenings with free jambalaya on Friday for dinner. The 2025 CFF will introduce a limited number of “Glamping” tickets that provide campers with a large tent, bed, linens, outdoor chairs, and more. The festival features free parking, as well as free admission for kids under 14 with adult supervision.
