Fairs, Fests and Events: July 8th weekend

NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) – This weekend has fun for the whole family! Anne Cutler is giving us the low-down on fairs, festivals, and events happening this weekend.

On Saturday, head to Mardi Gras world for the classic and muscle car auction. There will be over 200 cars to bid on starting at 8:00 a.m. If you’d like to bid, register online.

Who will be named Mr. Legs 2016? Male contestants will be strutting their stuff on Saturday night to benefit Bridge House and Grace House. Awards include hairiest legs, skinniest legs, and sexiest legs. Tickets are available online or at the door.

Since Bastille Day is around the corner, the Faubourg St John block party is on Saturday. The party will include food, music and an art market!

Get out your white clothing and red bandanas for the Running of the Bulls! In true New Orleans fashion, here, the bulls aren’t bulls at all – they’re none other than the Big Easy Rollergirls! If you want to participate, you can sign up online. Spectators can watch from a safe distance!
