Strike Gold with Tipitina’s at OffBeat’s French Quarter Festival Booth

This Jazz Fest, Tipitina’s will introduce “The Golden Ticket”, which gets the holder and a guest entry to all the club’s shows for the weekend (and not into Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory, as you might think). OffBeat will give away a Golden Ticket for each Jazz Fest weekend to two people who sign up for the Weekly Beat newsletter at our booth at French Quarter Fest, located across Decatur Street from Jackson Square, right in front of the Washington Artillery Park steps.
