Question

COVID AWARENESS

Answer

There is a vaccination ordinance in New Orleans. Particularly in the French Quarter, not dissimilar to other states around the country. You should bring a copy or proof of vaccination with you for entrance into certain bars/restaurants etc. If you do not have that, you may bring a negative COVID test. We recommend bringing masks as well, we are not sure how strict the city will be in November. We would hate to see people turned away at the door. Come prepared!
