On Stage: Superstar Spotlights and Band Battles


 

Step into the spotlight on Tipitina’s world-famous stage, backed up by world-famous musicians such as Cyril Neville, Rockin' Dopsie, Jr., Marva Wright, Eddie Bo, Kermit Ruffins, and a team of top New Orleans session musicians.*


Each of your guests can have their own shot at fame, as a vocalist or instrumental soloist in a gala all-star performance. Or we’ll split your guests into small groups, teach them New Orleans music on-the-spot, and send them into a celebrity-judged Battle of the Bands.


From Rehearsal Studio to Standing Ovation


Your group’s star day starts in private practice studio, in the heat of a full-fledged band rehearsal. Guests bond with the professional musicians and other group members, learn the lyrics, and experience the theory behind the music. The performers work out their choreography, costuming and presentation, while plotting how they will sing and dance to victory over the competition.


The culmination of each on-stage team building exercise is a start-studded performance on the world famous Tipitina’s stage. Participants will be dazzled by the lights, the music, the surroundings, the audience, and the applause. Each competing singer or group takes a turn on stage, showing off their hard work, and raising the roof (or bringing down the house) for the adoring fans and encouraging judges.


Judging is usually handled by well-known celebrity performers who may even cap off the festivities with a performance of their own! The event can be emceed by a local luminary, or your company’s own CEO. Participants leave with a custom CD and/or videotape, as a keepsake souvenir of the event.


Party Like a Rock Star


Naturally we'll serve up fantastic food and drinks, befitting your guests’ star status. Options range from water and soft drinks, with limited snacks, to a full bar with a lavish buffet, including oyster shucking, carving stations, dessert stations and more.


Tipitina's Special Events staff has more than twenty years of experience in food service and event production. All catering is handled by our professional team, including chefs, food tenders, waiters, bartenders, and bar backs, all in uniform.


Tipitina's will give your group the star treatment, like nowhere else in the world.
