The whole third floor of the RBC Convention Centre had been transformed into the streets of New Orleans, and entertainment went all night long, and the specialty bars, shops and vendors offered the best drinks, food and souvenirs the guest could purchase. Even a fresh oyster bar offered the best food of the night.
Inside the RBC Convention Centre had all wrapped with so much colours and gaiety, contagious music which enticed guests to go with the tempo; and walking along the streets of New Orleans, one would see and enjoy the food, photo op with the ladies and Elvis impersonator; and awed by the quality of entertainment in the two opposite stages.
Thousands of Winnipeggers enjoyed the two night galore, as if they were in New Orleans. When Dwayne Dopsie, a New Orleans charismatic performer, and the Zydeco Hellraisers started a very down to earth performance, everybody was on the floor listening, grayting, and dancing with the musics. Lovely ladies in a Las Vegas provocative attire started the dancing on the stage as they threw the beads to the people on the dance floor.
You should have been there and free yourself to enjoy the food and drinks, and to dance with the music! To feel as if you were in New Orleans, for that moment. Also,it was a great fun for the lovers to celebrate valentine for two consecutive nights of food, fun and music!
