Don’t know what to do for Fall Break? Deciding between maybe a quaint trip to the mountains or going upstate somewhere? Sure, that can be nice, but wouldn’t you rather head south to New Orleans and have a vacation that will blow any other possible plans away? Besides the wonderfully overwhelming degree of cultural activity, food, music and unadulterated fun during this time of year, there’s another enticing perk to vacationing in NOLA this November.

The Travel Channel, parent network of hit shows like No Reservations, Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern and Man vs. Food, is offering one family a chance to be on Vacation Crashers, a new series in which the producers hijack your vacation and force you to have the best, most genuine New Orleans experience by putting you in the capable hands of the ones that know the city best – the locals. To be considered, it’s surprisingly easy – just like New Orleans. Just email Vacation Crashers at [email protected] and explain why your crew should have the best New Orleans getaway possible by being on the show.

The Travel Channel asks you include contact information and a photo and the only requirement for entering is to go to New Orleans for a vacation during November 14-17. And why wouldn’t you want to anyway, considering all that will be going on? The highly original, delightfully shocking theater event, the New Orleans Fringe Festival is November 16-20, the exhilarating city-wide international art exhibit Prospect.2 will be in full swing, not to mention all the regular year-round live music like Soul Rebels at Le Bon Temps on Thursdays and Rebirth Brass Band at the Maple Leaf on Tuesdays.

You’ve got nothing to lose and everything to gain both by applying to be on Vacation Crashers and choosing New Orleans for your fall vacation!

    I just found out that your people did an interview in NOLA today i think, for this episode with a gentleman in a “Who Dat” hat that was purchased at Maskarade in the French Quarter. I am the artist that made the hat and would loooooove to know when that will be aired! Not only was i there this past weekend, but I had known about this show, i would have gladly entered to be picked. You see we were having my daughters bachelorette party  there in NOLA this past weekend. Boy, would that have been crazy!!! We live in Texas, and travel to NOLA all the time, especially now that I have my works being sold at Maskarade. I love that town!! The food, the people, the music, the fun , theres no place like it. Again, would love to know when this airs, and hey , I’m up for going back, if you’d like to film another segment!!!
