New Orleans is known for the great food, music, and art, and Voodoo Fest 2017 is willing to offer you in a whole new way. This music festival will be held on October 27-29, right around Halloween, in the historic New Orleans, LA. Here are a few reasons you may want to attend this three-day festival this fall:

1. The lineup: Voodoo released the lineup at the beginning of June and it is packed full of awesome performers. With artists like Kendrick Lamar and DJ Snake, who could resist purchasing a ticket?


2. The price: The cost to attend 3 full days of entertainment is only $99. With this price you cannot help but make your way down to New Orleans, it truly is a bargain.


3. The costumes: Because this festival is right before Halloween, you can expect festival goers to arrive decked out for the occasion. The only thing you have to worry about packing is your three most outrageous Halloween costumes. In New Orleans, anything goes.


4. The food: From watermelon salad, tacos, po-boys, and burgers you can experience the ultimate lineup of creole cuisine at Voodoo Fest. You can also venture to local restaurants right off of the festival's grounds.


5. The art: Voodoo invites local artists to come and display large pieces of interactive artwork throughout the grounds. They even have a marketplace where local artists set up booths for festival goers to immerse themselves in the raw artistry New Orleans has to offer.


6. The activities: Between sets, you can enjoy the ferris wheel, music lounges, and sponsor's interactive exhibits. You probably don't want to miss anyone that is performing, but if you need a rest Voodoo has an overflow of things to do.


If you are a fan of festivals and have yet to experience Voodoo Fest you may want to get your ticket now! With options like shuttles, single day entry, and VIP tickets, this may be one of the best festivals yet. Experience the "musical gumbo" that Voodoo Fest 2017 has to offer down in New Orleans this fall.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
