Thanksgiving Day at the horse races has been a longstanding New Orleans tradition among many, but the trend of showing up in one’s fanciest fashions and finest apparel is catching on among the downtown hipster crowds and younger generation. The New Orleans Fair Grounds Race Course is THE place to see and be seen on Thanksgiving Day. Screw Aunt Edna and her famous cranberry dressing, it’s all about donning your fanciest hats and frilliest frocks for a day at the race track.
Tattooed French Quarter types venture out in their handmade steampunk apparel to mix and mingle with Uptown ladies in fantastic hats inspired by the horse races. Thanksgiving Day horse races happen at race tracks all over the country, but perhaps no city does the races with quite the style of New Orleans.
