Sail 250 New Orleans!

📢⚓️𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐓𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐏𝐒 𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐆⚓️📢 Sail 250 is coming to New Orleans, and Louisiana is the FIRST stop as the U.S. welcomes tall ships from around the world to the Port of New Orleans to celebrate its 250th anniversary.

New Orleans has officially been named the inaugural host city, kicking off the national 250 commemoration and the Downtown riverfront stretching all the way to Poland Avenue will transform into a breathtaking showcase of towering tall ships and naval vessels.

⚓ A Welcome Parade of ships
🎆 Downtown fireworks show
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Multiple family friendly activities
🚢 Tour several tall ships
📍Port of New Orleans
📅 May 28 through June 1, 2026
🎟 FREE

⚓ We visited the tall ships the last time they were in New Orleans when our boys were younger, and it became one of those core memory days they still remember. If you can go, go!
