The year’s biggest celebration of all things Black beauty is returning to ESSENCE Festival!
Earlier this year, we kicked of our ESSENCE Beauty Carnival tour in NYC and now we’re bringing the fun back to New Orleans as we celebrate 25 years of moving the culture forward at ESSENCE Fest. Per usual, we’re pulling out all the stops to make this year’s Beauty Carnival the best yet, with both ticketed and free experiences to choose from.
Come ready to feed your inner beauty junkie from Friday, July 5 to Sunday July 7 and the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans, where you can get a front row seat to conversations with your favorite celebrity make up artists, beauty bosses, entertainers and more discussing the hottest topics in the beauty space. Plus hair & makeup demos, a beauty marketplace and live tapings of our new ESSENCE Color Files podcast.
Iman, LeToya Luckett, AJ Crimson, Raynell “Wuzzam Supa” Steward, Courtney Adeleye, Jackie Aina and so many more will also be on hand to join this year’s festivities.
While entry into the Beauty Carnival is free for all who register, the purchase of a General Admission Plus ticket will get you access to a dedicated entrance, an ESSENCE Beauty Carnival tote bag and exclusive photo activations.
If you’re looking for the ultimate VIP Beauty Carnival experience, a VIP ticket purchase unlocks exclusive access to meet & greets, a tote bag full of must-have products, a VIP suite with complimentary sips and lite bites, glow up stations and more.
