Louis Armstrong's Wonderful World

07/26/2018

"The festival in my eyes was a perfect display of what makes Queens the greatest place in New York City. A mix of white, black, old and young performers sharing their talents with a crowd that also relates to them....This festival truly captures what a Wonderful World we live in."

Thanks to the Queens Gazette for coming out to the fest!

On July 21 the fifth annual Louis Armstrong’s Wonderful World Festival was held quite fittingly in Queens, as Louis lived in a home in Corona and was very fond of the area.

"Louis Armstrong's Wonderful World was an event that would've generated the same good time no matter where it might have been held."

Read Popdust's recap of this year's fest + hear an interview with The Soul Rebels.

This past Saturday was the fifth annual Louis Armstrong's Wonderful World festival. The festival is an eclectic mix of musical acts and genres who represented Louis Armstrong's philosophy that people should listen to ALL kinds of music.
