The Big Easy Rollergirls at Voodoo Fest!

Who do the Voodoo? We do!

The Big Easy Rollergirls will be at the entrance of The Voodoo Experience every day of the festival from 10 to 11am, 1 to 2pm, and 4-5pm. We will be skating in front of the New Orleans Art Museum on 1 Collin Diboll Circle. We will have flyers and tickets to sell. You can also catch us skating around the festival - be careful of our hip checks!
