It’s time to light up the holidays, New Orleans style! The Greenway Supernova is returning to our vibrant city, transforming Lafitte Greenway Plaza into a cosmic Christmas wonderland from December 7th-9th, 5-9 pm. As the marketing director of the New Orleans Guest House, nestled in the historic neighborhood of Treme, just a stone’s throw away from the festivities, I’m Karen Brem, and I’m here to guide you through this spectacular, star-studded celebration.
A Cosmic Christmas Celebration
Imagine a place where art, light, and music converge to create a holiday experience that’s out of this world. The Greenway Supernova is not your typical Christmas event. It’s a three-night cosmic extravaganza that transforms the Greenway into a galaxy of wonder and joy, perfect for stargazers and holiday enthusiasts of all ages.
Light Installations Like No Other
The heart of the Supernova is its dazzling array of light installations created by talented New Orleans artists. These aren’t just holiday lights; they’re masterpieces that tell stories, ignite imaginations, and light up the night in a kaleidoscope of colors. From interactive displays to awe-inspiring sculptures, each piece is a unique tribute to the creativity and spirit of the Crescent City.
Music to Your Ears
What’s a New Orleans celebration without some toe-tapping tunes? With two stages featuring live music, the Supernova promises a soundtrack that’s as vibrant as its lights. Jazz, blues, funk – every genre under the starry sky will be represented, ensuring that your Supernova experience is as melodious as it is merry.
A Taste of Local Flavor
As you wander through this winter wonderland, your senses will be tantalized by the delicious aromas wafting from local food vendors. Indulge in everything from classic Creole dishes to contemporary New Orleans cuisine. It’s a feast for the taste buds, where every bite is a celebration of our city’s rich culinary heritage.
Shop ‘Til You Drop at the Art Market
Looking for unique holiday gifts? The Supernova’s art market is a treasure trove of local crafts, artwork, and one-of-a-kind finds. It’s the perfect place to pick up a piece of New Orleans to take home, whether it’s a handcrafted ornament, a piece of local artwork, or a quirky souvenir that captures the spirit of the city.
Preview Party: A Sneak Peek into the Supernova
Can’t wait to dive into the festivities? The Preview Party on December 6th offers a first glimpse of the art installations, an opportunity to meet the artists, and a live music experience to get everyone in the holiday spirit. It’s a chance to be among the first to see the Greenway transformed into a cosmic Christmas paradise.
