One
of the world’s great 10K races, the Crescent City Classic
is an Easter Weekend Tradition, not only in New Orleans, but in
the world, because it runs on a flat, fast, 6.2 mile course that
lends itself to world records as well as those who just want to
get some exercise "New Orleans Style" and then enjoy the
fabulous Postrace Party with Abita Blues and Cowboy
Mouth! |

Jefferson Parish stages a stunning celebration
of Carnival January 25th, 26th & 27th! It will be a page out
of Jazz Fest with sprawling stages both in the middle of the parade
route, across from the region's largest shopping venue and on the
Westbank of Mississippi River, where non-stop Louisiana bands and
feature artists will perform up until parade time with each night
having its own fun costume theme. While live bands fill the air
with rockin’ Louisiana music, families can also enjoy some
of the most unique food the world over with the addition of food
booths to Family Gras. Family Gras is a free, open-air celebration
that allows you to enjoy a family-style Mardi Gras and the music
of Louisiana. For more information, go to http://www.neworleansgateway.com/familyGras.html |
