The Four Seasons Hotel New Orleans is set to bring its local influence to festival season, guests, and locals this year by introducing its “After Dark”private concert. In conjunction with the opening night of French Quarter Fest on April 13, New Orleans’ own Ivan Neville, of the Neville family, will bring his sound to the Four Seasons’ garden. Jazz trumpeter Branden Lewis will perform an opening set to start the event.
The event runs from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m., with doors opening at 8 p.m. Guests can expect festival staples, such as Crab Beignets, Ponchatoula Strawberry Ice Cream Sundaes, and more served by the Four Seasons’ culinary team alongside cocktails.
Tickets are available online for $45 and include admission to the event only. The hotel will also offer a bed and breakfast package for those who want to make a night of the show.
The event marks the first of what the hotel hopes will be many music events in its garden. “There’s nothing like festival season in New Orleans,” said Mali Carow, General Manager of Four Seasons Hotel New Orleans. “We’ve taken festing to a whole new level with what we hope to be the first of many music events in our Garden.”
