New Orleans, nicknamed the Crescent City,
is so names because we are nestled in a bend of the Mighty Mississippi
River. New Orleans offers a unique urban adventure featuring a
diversity of architecture, culture, and cuisine. You will be busy
here, experiencing an array of sights, sounds, and tastes
guaranteed to enchant you. The gay community has always been welcomed
in New Orleans. Tennessee Williams, Truman Capote, and Gertrude
Stein have always found New Orleans a welcoming haven. Today,
New Orleans boasts one of the largest and playful gay and lesbian
communities in the South. Of particular interest to the gay and
lesbian community is the Southern Decadence weekend which is the
Pride Celebration of the South, held over the three-day Labor
Day weekend. It is like a mini-Mardi Gras for the gay and lesbian
community with a penchant for partying. New Orleans uniquely combines
the rich influences of our European, African, Caribbean, and of
course, American Forefathers into how we live, what we eat, and
how we celebrate. From sunrise to sunset, New Orleans entertains
with activities which delight people of every age and background.
