Enjoy art galleries, music, cocktails and food at these two New Orleans events The White Linen Night Crowd. The white linen suit, a fine beacon of style, comfort and wrinkles! In days gone by, the white linen suit in New Orleans was a summer time necessity. Thanks to modern conveniences like air conditioning and some may argue a diminishing sense of style, the white linen suit has become a much rarer sight these days. Thankfully there are at least two days a year you can count on seeing block after block of glorious white linen suits on the men and matching white dresses on the women: Whitney White Linen Night and Dirty Linen Night. These two New Orleans festivals celebrate the arts in New Orleans Awash in white at White Linen Night (Photo credit: Kevin Zansler, The Times-Picayune)
Whitney White Linen Night – Imagine a block full of art galleries all having an opening on the same night. Now stock these openings with food and drinks from amazing restaurants like GW Fins, Baru, The Bombay Club, Theo’s Pizza, Cafe Adelaide and more. Sprinkle in some music and make it all free. Pretty cool little picture, huh? Now multiply that by 5, and you’ve got yourself White Linen Night in a nutshell. Referred to as “Soho in the South,” 5 blocks of Julia Street open for art, food and fun on August 6 from 6-9 p.m. The party keeps on rolling for a mere $10 at the Contemporary Arts Center from 9-11 p.m.! Just don’t take your suit to the wash when you get home, because you’ll need it the following week.
Dirty Linen Night is a fun New Orleans event in the arts district that celebrates art, music and food Dirty Linen Night revelers (Photo courtesy of Dirty Linen Night) Dirty Linen Night – Not content to let the Julia Street galleries have all the fun, the Royal Street galleries and shops established Dirty Linen Night to encourage the art lovers of White Linen Night to come out and enjoy another evening of art, music and fun. In fact, attendees are encouraged to wear their stained white linens from the week before! While few actually do, the food and drinks themes tend to follow suit with dirty rice and dirty martinis making regular appearances along Royal Street. While Dirty Linen Night offers no official after party, I’m sure its French Quarter location lends itself to more than a few unofficial after parties!
White Linen Night: August 6, 2011, 300-700 blocks of Julia St. 6-9 p.m. After party: 9-11 p.m. Dirty Linen Night: August 13, 2011, 200-1000 block of Royal St. 6-9 p.m. Courtesy GoNOLA.com.
If there was a city that could pull off orchestrating its own version of one of the world’s most famous events, it’s New Orleans. After running with the bulls in Pamplona, Spain, the “Padrino” or founding godfather, decided to make it happen in New Orleans. In 2007, he and a group of friends founded the NOLA Bulls and so San Fermin in Nueva Orleans began. Buzz spread so quickly that, five years later, 8,000-10,000 runners are expected to turn out for this year’s San Fermin in Nueva Orleans festival.
The running of the bulls takes place July 9 2011 and the “bulls” are hundreds of roller derby girls on roller skates, decked with scary horns and large inflatable. Run at your own risk, these bulls are fierce! The run is free and open to the public. The only rule is to wear white with a red cloth around the neck and waist.
We welcome those with a sense of adventure to experience! The Dauphine Orleans Hotel and the New Orleans Hotel Collection are proud to the hotel sponsors of the 2011 Running of the Bulls.
