About New Orleans
Unlike any other North American city, New Orleans inspires and intrigues. The birthplace of jazz, home to some of the greatest restaurants (and service) in the world, an oasis of history and charm on the Mississippi, New Orleans is all that and more.
Mardi Gras – March 8, 2011
In New Orleans, a town famous for its French Quarter and Bourbon Street, for hot Cajun and Creole cuisine and or cool Dixieland jazz, one event surpasses them all as the city’s legendary signature piece - Mardi Gras! It’s a season of revelry and romance, of madness and music, of parades and parties, of comic costuming in the streets and grandiose private masquerade balls. Mardi Gras is a time when the gaudy and the gorgeous all come together or one gigantic blowout. From the regal to the ridiculous, the New Orleans Mardi Gras has it all!
