New Orleans knows how to appreciate the good things in life: food, music, and parties. The birthplace of jazz, the city moves to a relaxed groove and takes a laid-back attitude towards life. It seems like there’s always something to celebrate, with a festival or parade happening almost every other week. The most well-known festival in New Orleans is Mardi Gras, French for ‘Fat Tuesday’. This is when the city comes alive in a blaze of colourful costumes and floating parades. With a rich cuisine influenced by people from various cultures, the city is a fabulous destination for either an adults-only wild weekend or a family getaway.
