Family Gras is another big reason to make the journey to New Orleans. This celebration takes place starting on February 2nd, 2018 and continues well into the next night. Family Gras typically provides an experience that is fitting for the whole family. Parades and shows are on display for explorers to indulge in and enjoy with children of all ages, but families are cautioned to skip the French Quarter for the sanctity of a wholesome family experience that avoids possible bawdy sights and behavior.
