    Fall Festivals in New Orleans, Part I - Episode #71

    Fall Festivals in New Orleans, Part I - Episode #71

    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!

    Festivals in September and October

    For today's discussion, we focused on the time period from just after Labor Day through the end of October. Click on the links to go to the event's webpage.
