Spring is my favorite time of year because of all the wonderful festivals. Enjoy this Spring Festivals Guide while planning your weekend fun.
At many festivals in New Orleans, you will see a woman dressed in colorful clothing with a glistening parasol dancing her heart out. Robert Witkowski interviews our cover woman Jennifer Jones, an unforgettable local fixture.
While there are fantastic festivals within the city, there are also plenty of superb celebrations in the outlying parishes. Kimmie Tubré takes us on a journey around Louisiana to explore these jubilees. One of those special festivals is the Ponchatoula Strawberry Festival, and Jeff Boudreaux explores its sweet history.
Festival Fashion 101 is preparing for the elements while also showing off your personal style. Festival newbies and veterans alike will appreciate Cynthea Corfah’s “Fashionably Festive” piece.
