Attention Street Musicians and Performers! As the Super Bowl gets closer, are you concerned about how an increase in law enforcement "sweeps" and the "clean zone" could impact your ability to perform? Have you been told conflicting things about when and where you can set up? What does the law say about performing on Bourbon Street, Royal Street, and Frenchmen Street?
