Music scene
Hit up the clubs on and around Frenchmen street in the Marigny for the best music in New Orleans (jazz, gypsy jazz, brass bands, blues and more). Be sure to stop in at DBA, Blue Nile, and Spotted Cat. And if you get hungry, Thirteen or Dat Dog for a late night snack.

Food scene
This is a food hall on the outskirts of the Marigny neighborhood, with a variety of local food truck turned brick and mortar vendors, so there is something for everyone. This place is great for breakfast, lunch or a quick bite between events. We love to grab a dozen raw oysters and wash it down with a nice glass of Rose.

The menu has lots of fun shareable plates (hummus, baba, tabouli, beets, pickles, etc.) so you can taste some of everything. Cocktails are also superb.
