French Quarter Festival a Success!

French Quarter Festival Welcomes Record Crowds - again!

This year's attendance figures indicate that approximately 533,000* festival-goers enjoyed the music, food, special events and of course, the historic French Quarter!

The new opening day of Festival, dubbed "Locals Lagniappe Day", on Thursday, April 7th was well received and well attended. Audiences enjoyed The Preservation HallStars, New Leviathan Oriental Foxtrot Orchestra, Benny Grunch and the Bunch, Los Hombres Calientes, Lillian Boutte, Bag of Donuts, Bonerama and other favorites of the local music scene. Festival organizers were thrilled with the response to the additional day. They came out early and stayed until the last note played. READ THE FULL STORY HERE
