Fall Festivals in New Orleans

Today’s show is all about things to do in New Orleans in the fall. We did a Summer episode (#63) that was very popular so we decided to follow up with a guide for the later months. There are so many fall festivals in New Orleans, we had to break it into two parts. Today's episode covers September and October. In a follow-up episode, we'll cover November, December, and New Years.

We’re going to talk mostly about festivals and things to do, as well as our tips for how to make the most of your time.

By the end of today’s show, we will have you ready to go for your visit!

Like the summer show, I have a special guest. If you’ve joined our Facebook group, the Beyond Bourbon Street Krewe, you’ve probably benefitted from her ideas and insights about New Orleans. This person is the backbone of the podcast. She helps with ideas, contributes frequently to the group and pretty much keeps me in line. She is my wife and my partner, Marie Bologna!

  Sponsor: The Old 77 Hotel and Chandlery

When you're ready to make your plans to visit New Orleans, you'll need a place to stay! The Old 77 is ideally situated in the Warehouse District, just three blocks from the French Quarter. It features a variety of pet-friendly rooms, the award-winning Compere Lapin restaurant, and more.

You'll love the location, the rooms, and the food, but the details and the service are what you'll fall in love with!

To book your room, click here or use code BBOLD77 to save 25% off their regular rates.

You'll also get a bit of lagniappe, a little something extra. In this case, you'll receive a $10 credit to be used at Tout La in the hotel lobby - your stop for coffee and a quick bite to eat as you head out to explore New Orleans.
