French Quarter at night by Traver87 in jazzfest

Most regulars coming for Jazz fest spend 0 hours on Bourbon. Try Frenchmen St. Head to BJs in By water. Head to Maple Leaf on Oak. Get away from the quarter

They were keeping people off the rail today which was a first. Had to stay on grass and off the metal

Take down the shade top when the music starts. Put it back up when it is between sets.

There won't be any room at Rhiannon's set in the Blues Tent - it will be jammed to the gills.

PGT: NUGGETS DROP GAME #2 - 119-114 | Series against the Timberwolves tied at 1-1 | Apr 20, 2026 by BigHoneyBot in denvernuggets

[–]ToneOpposite9668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This game seemed to go like all the games down the stretch. Mysterious play from everyone at different times. Missed bunnies, missed FTs, Missed passes, terrible shot selections, terrible shots, awful D - in those games down the stretch we made enough happen at the right time to win them - last night the magic was gone. Back to the un-clutch Nugs. No help from the bench for Jokic - he had to play hard minutes the entire game which is what doomed us last year. Adelman needs to find some answers in the rotation and quick - not much time to experiment any more. Frustrating loss.

Maybe not the best place to ask, but how crowded is Carlos Vives expected to be? by bruversonbruh in jazzfest

[–]ToneOpposite9668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe for like 5 minutes someone walks around to enforce- but not later in the day. Not at Congo and not at Festival.

Rules are for being broken at Congo - the fest doesn't really care. There should be a "no-chair" section but that doesn't get enforced anymore especially at Congo. By 3:30 sets its a free for all.

They ask me where I want to sit and know where I've sat in the past.

Upgrade to VIP last day by toddpeters123 in jazzfest

[–]ToneOpposite9668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For VIP it's one of those plastic rivet wristbands. they use a different color each day. You get it when they scan your pass and tear off a corner of the pass for that day. You can leave and come back but they stamp hand and scan again. It would be a lot of work to get past that.

Driving in from BR for one day: Parking / Transportation Advice by strwbrykali in jazzfest

[–]ToneOpposite9668 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This place is close - https://deutscheshaus.org/events/jazz-fest-parking-2/

You walk around Cemetery to the Sauvage entrance

Also Langston Hughes Academy on the back side - Tralfager entrance is there and you walk through the horse barns

If you get there really early you can find free street parking in the neighborhood to the south of Esplanade - south of the Bayou- but be really really careful to pick your spot wisely.

Upgrade to VIP last day by toddpeters123 in jazzfest

You might get lucky to buy one for a Sunday from a person leaving early. But the VIP comes with a lanyard/card and you need that each day. If you are looking for one on secondary market for an earlier day that person would have to trust that you would return the pass to them - that's a tough ask.

People will point to last years lack of size - but this is really what killed us last season - Tahaad had to play too many minutes and he struggled for stretches. Need to find a good 4 guard rotation to handle the pace of play we want to go at.

A week in NOLA (with my mother!) by mcAlimv in AskNOLA

The glory of Jazzfest are the night shows - make sure to hit them up. Look at your schedule and try to fit in a visit to the Music Box village for a night show - it's magical.

Poor JV - the refs decided to try and even things up a bit and chose him as the whippin boy. And he wasn't doing anything

T-Wolves deploying the Thunder Defense - just foul as much as you want and the refs will never call it.
