The 2011 Oak Street Po-Boy Festival (formerly the New Orleans Po-Boy Preservation Festival), presented by Blue Plate Mayonnaise and Fox 8 on November 20, 2011, was the best one yet! Named "the best food festival of 2010" by Gambit Weekly, this year's Fest will featured three stages with live music, arts and crafts, a children's section with games and prizes, panel discussions covering the history of the po-boy, and, of course, the best tasting po-boys in New Orleans. Admission to the Po-Boy Fest is free. New for the 2011 Fest: VIP wristbands, which gave access to express food and drink lines, one Sky Lounge, VIP areas with free beer, soda and water, and more.
The FoodOver 40 vendors brought their tastiest po-boys to the Fest! From time-honored favorites to new classics, there was something for everyone. |
The MusicDozens of performers were playing on three stages all day long, including Los Po-Boy-Citos, The Stooges Brass Band, Mia Borders, Rebirth Brass Band, and more. |
