The lineup is here — and it’s a good one. 🍗✨

The 2026 National Fried Chicken Festival presented by Raising Cane’s is returning October 2–4 at the UNO Lakefront Arena Fairgrounds — and Messina’s Catering & Events is proud to once again handle Beverage Management for the 10th annual festival.

This year’s lineup features Nelly, 2 Chainz, Dillon Francis, Keri Hilson, Ying Yang Twins, A-Trak, Webbie, Big Freedia, the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra, and so many more. Three days of fried chicken, great music, and only-in-New-Orleans energy on the lakefront.

We cannot wait. See you in October! 💛

Happy New School Year from Messina’s Catering & Events! 🍎✨

We are so excited to be back and serving our school communities for another year. We are thrilled to continue our lunch programs at St. Pius X School and Holy Name of Jesus School, and are equally excited about our ongoing partnerships with Memorial Baptist School and Atonement Lutheran School. It is a privilege to feed these incredible students every day — here’s to a wonderful school year ahead!
