The Witches & Warlocks Return: A Bewitching Night at Storyville Museum
Something wicked this way comes to the French Quarter. The Vieux Carré Commission Foundation is casting its spell once more with the return of the Annual Witches & Warlocks Mini-Soirée—an evening where centuries-old New Orleans lore meets Halloween revelry.
When: Wednesday, October 14th, 6:30–8:30 PM
Where: New Orleans Storyville Museum
Where History Gets a Little Haunted
New Orleans has always had one foot in the mystical—and the Storyville Museum is the perfect place to lean into it. For one night, this storied venue sets the stage for an evening that’s equal parts elegant soirée and Halloween mischief, steeped in the city’s own tangled history of magic, mystery, and mayhem.
Your attendance and support help the Vieux Carré Commission Foundation continue its work to preserve, protect, and promote the historic Vieux Carré.

Fare Fit for a Coven
A curated spread of bites that strike the balance between soirée-sophisticated and Halloween-playful.

Save Your Spot Before the Cauldron’s Full
This soirée stays intentionally intimate, so tickets are limited and tend to disappear fast. Don’t get left out in the cold (or the cemetery).
