dont forget that September 7, 2008 is labor daylight and if you want to stay in a hotel during that time next I suggest to you to make the required hotel reservations right now for that out of the ordinary time .
For your information, please do not hestitate to contact me via email so that I can make the hotel reservations for you and allow you to grasp the cheapest rates possible.
The best one is Satchmo Summerfest, held at the Old U.S. Mint the first week-end of August. White Linen Night, mentioned by Traveler, is not really a party, but a neighborhood block party.
French Quarter Festival is coming up. There is also Jazz Fest at the Fairgrounds.
If he comes in the naissance of August there is Satchmo which is free and lots of fun. That weekend is also the white linen fest which is greatly of fun too.
