New Orleans Celebrates The Holidays

Filed in archive Morsels of Info on December 8, 2007

The month of December brings Christmas, New Orleans Style, a celebration of the season, the city, food and history to the city of New Orleans.

Welcome to "Christmas New Orleans Style"! Join with us as we celebrate the spirit of our city aglow with twinkling lights, festive iron-laced balconies, and garland decked streetcars.

Converse with Historical Characters as they stroll the streets of the Vieux Carre and share their love of New Orleans; learn the secrets of our award winning cuisine at Cooking Demos; visit our historic homes and museums decorated in festive holiday colors; and find treasured holiday gifts as you stroll our quaint streets and shop with our local merchants.

Papa Noel hotel rates are available and make it easier to spend more time at Christmas New Orleans Style. Restaurants continue the French tradition of "Reveillon" dinners. The icon of our city, 200 year old St. Louis Cathedral, will host a variety of weekly concerts, and additional Special Events for all ages will bring family and friends together to fall in love with New Orleans all over again!

All month long, dozens of the city's best restaurants offer reduced price, Reveillon menus that provide a sampling of the exquisite cuisine of New Orleans and Louisiana. Combine that with the reduced rates at many hotels and I have to ask, What are you waiting for?
