Harry Connick Jr.
- Sun, July 5 7:30 PM On Sale Soon
Summer’s Biggest Night
Harry Connick, Jr.’s career has exemplified excellence across multiple platforms in the entertainment world. He has received Grammy and Emmy awards as well as Tony nominations for his live and recorded musical performances, his achievements in film and television and his appearances on Broadway as both an actor and a composer.
The foundation of Connick’s art is the music of his native New Orleans, where he began performing as a pianist and vocalist at the age of five. Highlights of his music career include several multi-platinum albums (When Harry Met Sally, Blue Light, Red Light, When My Heart Finds Christmas, Come By Me, and Only You.) The Grammy nominated True Love: A Celebration of Cole Porter, was released in 2019 in conjunction with a production on Broadway which he wrote and directed honoring the musical achievements of one of America’s most respected songwriters, Cole Porter. In 2020 as the world entered the pandemic lockdown, Connick retreated to his home studio and emerged with an album of songs of faith and inspiration. Alone With My Faith displays the sheer breadth of Connick’s talents as he wrote new songs, arranged all songs, played every instrument, sang every voice and earned Connick his 16th career Grammy nomination for Best Roots Gospel Album. In January 2025, Connick made his debut on the storied stage of the New York Metropolitan Opera, which relaunched the Broadway production of A Celebration of Cole Porter.
Connick has appeared in 21 films and most recently starred in Find Me Falling, a romantic comedy filmed in Cyprus and released by Netflix in July of 2024. Find Me Falling rocketed to the #1 spot on the Netflix Global English Language chart upon release. Connick starred in Dolphin Tale with Morgan Freeman, Hope Floats with Sandra Bullock, P.S. I Love You with Hilary Swank, Bug with Ashley Judd, and Copycat with Sigourney Weaver, and on television (American Idol, Will & Grace, South Pacific, Annie Live and his Emmy Award winning concert specials.) His national daytime television show “Harry” featuring his touring band earned 11 Daytime Emmy nominations in its two seasons, including two nominations for best host, and a Critics’ Choice nomination for best talk show.
On Broadway, Connick received Tony nominations as both a lead actor in The Pajama Game and as a composer/lyricist for Thou Shalt Not.
Despite his busy career, Connick has always found the time to be charitable and has done some of his most important work in his efforts to help New Orleans after the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. He, along with friend Branford Marsalis, conceived of “Musicians’ Village,” and its centerpiece, the Ellis Marsalis Center (www.EllisMarsalisCenter.org.) Musicians’ Village provides homes for musicians while the Center uses music as its focal point of a holistic strategy to deliver a broad range of services to underserved children, youth and musicians from neighborhoods battling poverty and social injustice.
Connick’s honors, including a star on the celebrated Hollywood Walk of Fame, induction into the Hollywood Bowl Hall of Fame, Honorary Doctorates from Tulane and Loyola Universities and the Jefferson Award for Public Service, have not led Harry Connick, Jr. to slow his creative pace; they only confirm his determination to apply his talents in ways that prove inspirational to other artists and publicly spirited citizens.

Standing at Concerts
Standing and Dancing at Concerts: DPAC is proud to welcome all types of concerts to our stage. Sometimes during the course of a concert performance, audience members will show their enthusiasm by standing and dancing, especially when encouraged by the performers to do so. Unless directed by the show, we do not ever enforce a must sit policy at concerts. For most concerts, this would not be acceptable to the performers on stage who often love it when the crowd is moved enough by the performance to stand. This is especially true for rock shows and for seats closest to the stage.

Video Screens
Currently, this event has not approved using our video screens. Please feel free to check back closer to the event for updates. If approved, we will post notice here.
For many concert, comedy, and special events at DPAC, we offer added views of the stage with two big screens (size: 16’ x 9’) hung to the sides of the stage or above the stage. These big screens can add to the visual experience of our concert, comedy, and special events and give guests seated farther from the stage what we like to call “a tenth row view”. Approval to use these screens always rests with the visiting show and about half of all concert and comedy events do use these screens.
