Top 7 Things to do in Fairgrounds, Louisiana (LA)

February 2, 2022 Trinity Boughner

Laissez les bons temps rouler! In New Orleans the good times are perpetually rolling down Bourbon Street, which, thanks to the city’s annual Mardi Gras celebration, has quite a party animal reputation. Once you’ve soaked up the scenery of the historic French Quarter, tour the elegant Garden District and meet the colorful characters of Frenchmen Street. Experience the city's supernatural vibe at the Voodoo Museum or by taking a guided ghost or vampire tour through taverns, alleyways, and cemeteries.

St. Louis Cemetery No. 3

This cemetery was built on a former graveyard for lepers.

Reviewed By beachbum72324 - New Orleans, United States

I recently went on a City tour & this cemetery was one of our stops given it's location to the City Park & that also being another of our stops. Had it not been raining we would have had more time to walk the grounds & see more tombs. Some of the more notable tombs I did see were those of Paul Prudhomme & James Gallier. I don't know who the Skelly family is but they have quite a tomb in this cemetery though. So If you want to walk through a really, nice, well Kept NOLA cemetery drop by this one while your in the area of the City Park just remember they are locked up daily at 3pm.

New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival

Also known as 'Jazz Fest,' the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival brings much more than just jazz music to the city. In fact, all types of music with their roots in the south can be heard around the end of April and beginning of May: Blues, country, zydeco, folk, pop, rap… it's all to be soaked up, along with some mouth-watering cajun cuisine such as crawfish beignets, Po'boys, and spicy jambalaya. The fun isn't limited to the confines of the festival either. The whole city comes to life with live music, shows, and nightclubs holding regular 'Jazz Fest' evenings too.

We love to go to the races. You can play all day and not spend a lot of $$$. It's a beautiful building with places to see the horses before the race and pick your choice. Options of spending $$$ in the penthouse for lunch or get a hot dog and beer for a few $...
