“New Orleans showed my family and me so much love and that stayed with me,” said Lee. “FamiLee Day is my way of giving that love back, bringing people together, supporting local businesses, and celebrating the culture and food that makes New Orleans so special.”   

The idea for the FamiLee Day Festival was sparked by Keith Lee’s genuine love for New Orleans and its people. Lee has consistently expressed admiration for New Orleans’ rich culture, resilient spirit and unmatched food scene. The overwhelming support and sense of community left a lasting impression, inspiring him to create an event with family at its core that gives back to the city in a meaningful way. Attendees can expect appearances from top-tier talent, local vendors, community partners, all coming together to create a welcoming and inclusive environment for all ages. 

"Live Nation Urban has made a concerted effort to invest in creators as we believe in the importance and future of the creator economy,” states Brandon Pankey, VP Business Development & Operations. "Keith Lee's FamiLee Day is not just a festival; FamiLee Day is a movement where creators, cuisine, and community collide in the most organic and incredible way."
