Five Things to Do This Spring in New Orleans
Get out there and explore New Orleans this spring when the weather is balmy and the musicians are hot (the crawfish, too). Here are five great reasons to reserve your room at Hotel Provincial.
1. See the Krewe du Fool’s April Fools Day Parade – April 1
Come see Grand Marshal Little Freddie King at this annual parade in the Marigny. This year’s theme is “Dress To The Nine! Let The Golden Shine!” They’ll be throwing Gold Bricks, gold nugget candy and more. Learn more.
2. Rock out at French Quarter Fest – April 10-13
French Quarter Festival offers 20 music stages throughout the French Quarter and features local artists playing jazz, New Orleans Funk, Zydeco, Cajun, brass band music, and gospel. Best of all, the festival is free! Learn more.
3. Put a bonnet on it – April 20
There are three Easter parades in the French Quarter on Sunday: the Historic French Quarter Easter Parade, the French Quarter Easter Parade and the Gay Easter Parade. Hop on down to the parade route for the fun!
4. Swing over to the Zurich Classic – April 21-27
Every year, the Zurich Classic, a leg of the PGA Tour, is played at the TPC of Louisiana, just 15 miles from downtown New Orleans. Since it’s New Orleans, you can expect food as great as the golf.
5. Go Jazz Festin’ – Last weekend in April/First weekend in May
This fest is one of the highlights of life in the Big Easy. Come experience the legendary food, art and music (and not always in that order). Here’s your chance to see big international stars along with all your favorite Louisiana performers. Learn more and see the complete Jazz Fest 2025 lineup.
