Returning to New Orleans’ Mardi Gras World for the second year on March 8-9, the BUKU Music + Art Project has established itself as one of the Gulf Coast’s most unique events by offering musical performances and art installations in an intimate, post-industrial setting nestled between the Mississippi River and a railroad line, all in the shadows of a haunting rundown power plant. Minutes away from the famed French Quarter, the venue is one of the leading Mardi Gras float production houses and home to many of the most elaborate Mardi Gras floats in the world.

Tickets for the BUKU Music + Art Project are on sale now at http://bit.ly/SLFDlL. In addition to general admission tickets, BUKU has once again teamed up with CID Entertainment to offer expanded VIP and Travel packages, including a VIP package offering access to the S.S. BUKU, a riverboat docked on the Mississippi River alongside the BUKU grounds all weekend. The VIP package will feature open bar, easy access to all stages, VIP-only bars, intimate VIP-only performances, a viewing area of the main stage from the boat’s deck and much more. The 2013 BUKU Music + Art Project is presented by Winter Circle Productions alongside HUKA Entertainment (Hangout Music Fest) and MCP Presents (CounterPoint, Lights All Night and Camp Bisco).
