This iconic American institution was established in 1961 with the intention of preserving this uniquely American art form and providing some of its earliest practitioners the opportunity to earn a living performing the music they had pioneered and kept alive for so many years.  Preservation Hall’s evening performances are recognized as some of the world’s last “pure musical experiences,” presenting authentic, traditional New Orleans jazz, played by the city’s finest.  Experience the living legends that won Preservation Hall the Zagat award for 'Best Appeal' for 2009 New Orleans Nightlife.  There is no bar service, air-conditioning, or other modern updates, Preservation Hall is a truly unique experience for kids and adults alike.  In the words of Louis Armstrong: “Preservation Hall, now that’s where you’ll find all the greats”.
