New Orleans, a.k.a. the Big Easy, known for its tasty cuisine, fun nightlife, vibrant live-music, and the future of news—mediaXchange.
Will you be there?
With so much to do and so many people to meet, we want to make sure you make the most of your time at New Orleans. Take in the sights, tastes and sounds of the French Quarter with our top 4 places, all conveniently located within walking distance from the Marriott Hotel:
Love It!
Get Jazz-Fest-ready by visiting our favorite boutique in the French Quarter, “Love it!” by designer Danna Lea. Her inviting shop is filled with handmade and vintage-inspired dresses, bags and accessories, which make even the most unimaginative of minds feel like they’ve stepped back in time into a party!
Cavan
As featured in USA Today and Vogue, Cavan is an elegantly-faded dining room located in the historic Cockerton mansion built in 1881. You’ll love the savoury snacks like the Fried Oyster Toast, and you’ll get a kick out of the shrine that resides on the top shelf of the bar to appease the “ghosts of Cavan”—filled with candles, sage, and every ghost’s favorite—gin.
Marie Laveau’s House of Voodoo
Whether you’re looking for a Voodoo doll to hex your ex, or you just need a bit of help winning the lottery, you have to visit Marie Laveau’s House of Voodoo to check out their souvenirs or get a spiritual reading. This uniquely New Orleans shop doubles as a museum for Louisiana Voodoo, and it’s a place you’ll have to see to believe—quite literally with their no camera policy.
