Horse Meat Disco to Hit New Orleans for Southern Decadence
READ TIME: 2 MIN.
New Orleans, LA - Southern Decadence is Mardi Gras' queer cousin of revelry - a Labor Day weekend's worth of parading in parasol and white gloves to celebrate the joy and rebellion of gay ol' New Orleans.
Three Keys will be in full swing with five nights of free decadent programming. On Saturday night, London institution Horse Meat Disco takes over Barnett Hall with support from the Trax Only Crew, Father Figure, Bouffant and Kathi, with tickets on sale soon.
Until the full schedule's revealed in the next few weeks, guests can use code BLANCHE to book a room at Ace New Orleans for Southern Decadence weekend (August 31-September 5) for a discount on their room rate, VIP access for two to the Mezzanine during shows at Three Keys, plus two free drinks anywhere on property.
