New Orleans Jan 1, will anything be open ?

[Terry King]

We will be there pre cruise and was wondering if the shops will be open and shops in the french quarter, also does anyone know where hard rock cafe is ?

[GoinCruisin]

I would imagine.... NOLA is a pretty touristy city, I'm in Raleigh, NC and just about everything HERE is open on New Years Day (and we don't have too many tourists, LOL), so I would imagine that there will be PLENTY open in NOLA, LOL.

 

Hard Rock is on the corner of St.Louis and N Peters...

Is hard rock in the french quarter ?

[CruisingDawg]

...everything will be open.

Is hard rock in the french quarter ?

Yes.

The French Quarter never closes! (Well, maybe if directly hit by a hurricane):eek:

..they do slow down about 5 am to let the bulldozers come thru and push the trash out.

January 1 is a busy day in the Quarter! Everything will be open. Bowl games always draw big crowds. Big crowds mean $$$. ;)

We live in New Orleans..........French Quarter is open on New Years Day?

[Cotton]

Was that a serious question?

 

I've also from N.O., and my DD lives in the Quarter - and that's where I spend N.Y. Day every year. Of course everything's open.;)

[GoinCruisin]

Are there really still places that are closed on New Years Day? It is a HUGE shopping day here... all the bars and restaurants are open for the Bowl games... I would think that NOLA would be MORE than hopping on New Years!!!

I find it really hard to believe that there is a place that is a non-stop party! That's why I have to go so often!:D

24/7/365 the city that REALLY never sleeps!

Very few places open last Christmas Day, a few eating places & small bars but everything started back up at 4 or 5 that evening. I'm sure most will be open. I can only imagine the New Years Eve Party on Bourbon. :eek: Sure hate that I will not be there.

[MERVYN BREMMER]

I have a better idea let's list the places that will be closed ..... I'm sure the list will be a lot shorter
