Worlds' best - New Orleans nightlife!

New Orleans has been ranked number one internationally for nightlife, according to the TripAdvisor Annual Travelers’ Choice Destinations Awards.

The city was also recognised in four other categories including third in the Top 10 Food & Wine Destinations in the United States and fourth in the Top 10 Food & Wine Destinations in the World. The Crescent City was placed ninth in the Top 10 Culture & Sightseeing Destinations in the United States and 15th in the Top 25 Destinations in the United States.

TripAdvisor Travelers’ Choice Destinations Awards are based on millions of real and unbiased reviews and opinions from travellers on TripAdvisor.com with New Orleans competing against  cities like New York, Las Vegas, Buenos Aires and London.

Jody Hanson, UK sales & marketing director commented: “Having represented New Orleans for 12 years, we have long known that the city offers a vibrant, exciting nightlife with an exotic and delicious mix of fabulous dining experiences, appealing to all tastes.  

“It is impossible to stand still on Bourbon Street; contagious live music floats on the breeze and the atmosphere in the clubs is electric.  Beyond Bourbon Street, try the Jazz clubs in Frenchman Street, the chic cocktail bars in the Warehouse district or the Rock’n’Bowl for live music with a difference,” she added.
