The 2026 Soul Food Festival, hosted by the 100 Black Men of St. Mary’s Parish, is more than a celebration, it is an experience rooted in culture, community, and connection. This signature event brings together the rich flavors of soul food with the timeless sounds of jazz and blues, creating an atmosphere that honors tradition while uplifting the spirit of togetherness.

 

Guests will enjoy a wide variety of authentic soul food favorites prepared with love and heritage, paired with live jazz and blues performances that set the rhythm for the day. From smooth melodies to soulful harmonies, the music reflects the deep cultural roots that have shaped our community for generations.

 

The Soul Food Festival is also a family friendly gathering designed to bring people together across all ages. It serves as a platform to support the mission of the 100 Black Men of St. Mary’s Parish, focused on mentoring youth, strengthening families, and investing in the future of our parish. Every plate served and every note played contributes to initiatives that promote education, leadership, and economic empowerment.

 

Whether you come for the food, the music, or the fellowship, the 2026 Soul Food Festival promises an unforgettable day filled with great food, great music, and even greater purpose. Join us as we celebrate culture, community, and the power of giving back.

 

Good food. Great music. Family fun.
