If you're here during Mardi Gras, prepare to walk!
We are centrally located Uptown and the majority of parades pass close by, either on Napoleon or St. Charles - but this also means road closures. We are "in the box" so be prepared to stay close, walk a long way, or be stuck in traffic while you figure out which roadways are still open!
Was einpacken?
Our summer lasts 8 months...
Don't forget some breathable clothes and your water bottle. And don't worry, we're all sweating too
