Threadhead Thursday is one of the best ways to kick off the Jazz Fest. It happens between 6 and 10 PM on the Haspel stage of the New Orleans Botanical Gardens in City Park on Thursday. Plus it supports local culture. Full disclosure—I have received grants from the Threadheads to support my books.
This free event ($10 suggested donation to City Park) is sponsored by Zatarain’s and also assisted by a New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Foundation grant.
Come enjoy a great night of musical talent among the beautiful oaks of City Park. Paul Sanchez and his Rolling Road Show kick things off followed by the Brass-A-Holics. The night finishes with her Long-Tallness Marcia Ball! There will be plenty of food and beverages available for purchase including Blue Oak BBQ inside and also the Fete au Fete & Taceaux Loceaux food trucks outside.
