Heading to The Big Easy

Written by Zach Gilbert

Published: 05/30/2018

That’s right, MagHub is heading to New Orleans, LA for City and Regional Magazine Association’s Annual 2018 conference. Bourbon Street here we come! This year’s conference will be held at the New Orleans Marriott off of Canal St.

There are tons of things to do in New Orleans between sessions, and here are our top three things you should definitely do while in New Orleans, LA. You might even catch us doing them this weekend.


 

Beignet

1) Purchase and devour a Beignet (ben-YAY).

What’s better than a pastry on a hot summer morning? A deep-fried pastry on a hot summer morning! Powdered sugar, fried, and served hot & fresh. You can find these tasty treats across New Orleans; however, you’ll likely see us at Café du Monde.


 

Voodoo Storefront

2) Learn, but don’t participate in Voodoo.

We’re not saying that we’re superstitious; however, we’re not going to take any chances either. Interested in learning about the strange and mysterious bayou occult? Stop by Marie Laveau’s House of Voodoo in the French Quarter and partake in spiritual readings while browsing the many retail items available for purchase.


 

Pirate Statue

3) Be a pirate.

At MagHub, we all believe we are pirates. Not the thievery kind, but more of the Jack Sparrow, dashing kind. So, when we heard that there was a bar owned by a privateer who was famous for smuggling alcohol, we knew we had to stop by. Lafitte’s Blacksmith Shop is one of the oldest buildings and establishments in New Orleans, built as a house in the 1770’s!


Workshops, roundtables, and keynotes will guide attendee’s schedules from June 2-4, 2018, and the time in between belongs to New Orleans. Are you attending this year’s CRMA conference? We’d love to see you there. Jenny and myself (Zach), will be passing out sweet new swag, while providing demos of MagHub, the Magazine CRM & Publishing Software.

Not attending this year’s CRMA, yet still want to learn more about MagHub? Click here to schedule a demo with one of our Account Executives, and we’ll reach out shortly.
