Local Transit
SHOULD I RENT A CAR?
We do not recommend renting a car for those planning to stay at our recommended hotel, the Marriott, or nearby in the French Quarter. Parking in the French Quarter is expensive and taxis in this area are plentiful.
TRAVEL TO/FROM AIRPORT
New Orleans taxis charge a flat rate of $33 from the airport to nearly any part of the city.
TRAVEL TO OUR VENUE
You will need to organize transportation (taxi, car) to get to our venue, Race & Religious. While it takes ~15 minutes to get from the Marriott or hotel to the venue without traffic, guests should expect traffic Saturday, November 28 due to a football game happening around the same time, the Bayou Classic. We recommend budgeting 20-30 minutes for the drive, to be safe. We also recommend taking a taxi from the Marriott or hailing one from the French Quarter, as they are plentiful in those areas. New Orleans also has Uber.
POST-CEREMONY SHUTTLE
Both Friday and Saturday nights, a shuttle will take all guests from Race & Religious back to the Marriott. If you choose an alternate hotel, and would like to take advantage of the shuttle, we recommend choosing accommodations near the Marriott.
