Famous large music venue Uptown. Every great New Orleans act has played in Tipitina's and locals love it. During the summer, entrance is free on Friday nights and you'll find food trucks outside .

Jason Schulweis

A must on any trip to NOLA for any music fan (even if there just one night). Great vibe and the talent is always second to none

Mike Seilback

Awesome music venue - well worth the taxi ride for some good music . Lots of famous acts play there and often guest with others.

Connor

Great venue for seeing music in an intimate setting . Great bar with additional room upstairs if it gets crowded .

Lindsay C

Great venue to dance and see live music . Late night shows are awesome! And don't miss the food truck outside !

Classic is dedicated to the late piano master Professor Longhair . A reliable place for top local and out-of-town roots, brass and rock bands .

Call ahead to find out about their free shows (many of which happen in the summer). And don’t forget to rub the Professor's head for good luck when you walk in. Read more

The bathroom smells like someone made out of urine exploded and was cleaned up with a mop made of hobo.
