Preservation Hall

Preservation Hall is a noted jazz performance hall located at 726 St. Peter Street in the French Quarter of New Orleans, Louisiana. It hosts nightly concerts featuring a rotating roster of bands. The bands of Preservation Hall typically perform jazz in the New Orleans style. Despite the fame of the institution, admittance is affordable ($8 as of early 2005). Because of limited seating, crowds typically begin lining up well in advance of a performance (no reservation are accepted), and the line is typically quite long, although sometimes a band member not performing that evening will play for those waiting in line.
