Live Music is Back!

 

We couldn’t be happier to be turning a corner towards normalcy! While social distancing and masks are still required, New Orleans has reopened for live music outdoors and indoors with some restrictions. To that point we’d like to give you an update on where you can find live music in Big Easy this spring.

Bacchanal - seating up to 6 people in a party they have a lovely outdoor patio with heat lamps featuring live music for dinner and brunch. Reservations recommended.

Flagpole NOLA - just a few blocks from the hotel this new coffee shop has a great set up and hosts live music regularly. Score one of their outdoor tables or bring a blanket and post up on the neutral ground (median).

Coliseum Park - a lovely park located in the Lower Garden District regularly hosts live jazz performances. Check their Facebook page for specifics.

Frenchman Street: Outdoor live music happening along Frenchman Street just a 10 minute walk from the hotel. Impromptu.
