I live in NOLA, so I am a little biased after all. But April is a really great month here in NOLA. March & April, and maybe late September through October are probably the nicest times of year here. Not so overwhelmingly hot, and there is usually plenty to do around town during both times. In the spring there is always Jazzfest and French Quarter Fest. This year there is also Convergence XII, a HUGE gothic/industrial music & cultural festival, which will be held here Easter weekend. Then of course Halloween is one of the best times all year to come to NOLA. We do it like nowhere else. There are usually a lot of other random local happenings during these times too, since the weather is nice. Come down! NOLA needs your tourism dollars now more than ever. Just do everyone a favor and don't take one of those guided tours of the heavily damaged areas of the city....remember, those areas represent people's lives and homes, not some attraction for tourists. - Unsubscribed , posted 03/14/06 |

 Best time of year is Halloween all around for weather, not as insane as Mardi Gras. Forget June unless you have to. Even the locals don't come. - Unsubscribed , posted 04/10/05 |

Best in the Quarter, although for the whole city I would say that that is a stretch. - Mark , posted 03/06/05 |

If you really want to see the city of New Orleans go during 'holy week' the week before easter. The weather is very mild and the tourism is at a minimum. Pirates Alley has to be the best bar/ coffee shop there. Plus everything in that city is a bar/something and you can't beat being asked 'for here or to go?' when you order an alcoholic beverage. - Kate , posted 08/30/04 |
