Description

Book a hotel in New Orleans for the BUKU Music + Art Project on NewOrleans.com.

The BUKU Music + Art Project fuses the unlikely combination of Hip-Hop stars and electronica artists for a mind-melting weekend of progressive music at Mardi Gras World, the massive warehouse on the Mississippi River where Mardi Gras parade floats are designed and built. BUKU will have indoor and outdoor stages set up, along with art displays ranging from local street artist installations and live painting to laser tag graffiti.

BUKU will combine New Orleans' vibrant Hip-Hop and bounce scene with an international lineup of electronica all-stars, including Grammy-nominated artists Skrillex, Avicii and Wiz Khalifa and Hip-Hop veterans Diplo, YelaWolf, Big K.R.I.T. and Big Gigantic. The late-night after party BASSIK at BUKU will feature Woflgang Gartner, Archnemesis, Plastic Plates and more.
