New Orleans Po-Boy Preservation Festival!

Held annually on the Sunday before Thanksgiving is an "SOS" or "Save Our Sandwich" festival. Founded as a celebration of the Po-Boy Sandwich and it's history in Louisanna. It's story and the role it has played in New Orleans’ culinary culture are celebrated on that day, much to the delight of the people of New Orleans!

The festival also highlights the ongoing revitalization of the Oak Street business corridor, which was designated a National Main Street in 2006 by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and a Louisiana Main Street by the Department of Historic Preservation, which authorizes the program. The festival is seeking sponsors, so sign on to their website to participate www.poboyfest.com!
