New Orleans' French Quarter is always festive. (View from Cafe du Monde)
Headed to New Orleans for the holidays? If so, you can enjoy the sounds of the season with a series of free Cathedral Concerts planned throughout December as part of Christmas New Orleans Style.
Located in the heart of the French Quarter on Jackson Square, the St. Louis Cathedral (615 Pere Antoine Alley) will once again host free performances during the Cathedral Concert series featuring jazz performances, gospel choirs, classical ensembles, and more. Musicians will play each evening at ecumenical celebrations at the oldest active cathedral in the United States.
All concerts are free and open to the public.
Concerts begin at 6:00 p.m. and last approximately one hour. Schedule after the jump.
