Happy 3-11 Day!
If you’re not in New Orleans to catch the show then make sure you listen to 311, wear your gear, and spread the word about 3-11 day!
Also, don’t forget about the specials that will be taking place at the 311 store.

According to a blog post from the Going to 3-11 Day 2008 MySpace user, more tickets are being released for 3-11 day.
After making some stage and production adjustments, it has allowed for four more sections to be opened up for ticket sales for the 3-11 Day show in New Orleans!! These sections are 116, 121, 320, and 328. They are side view tickets, some of which may be partially obstructed. The tickets are very close to the stage, so you’re right in the action! You can view these locations by going to the band’s 3-11 Day Ticketmaster page and then clicking the link on the right side of the page called “Seating Chart”.
These tickets will go on sale Friday, February 7 at 3:00PM CST at Ticketmaster.
If you haven’t gotten tickets yet then this is probably the time to do it!

VENUE: NEW ORLEANS ARENA
While past shows have been at the UNO Lakefront Arena, this time the show will be at the New Orleans Arena (www.neworleansarena.com), a state-of-the-art facility that opened in 1999. The Arena is within walking distance of 18,000 hotel rooms, the Central Business District, the Louisiana Superdome, the French Quarter (Bourbon Street), and riverfront attractions. So this location will be much more central to the heart and good times of New Orleans.TICKETS: ON-SALE TBA
At this time, a ticket on-sale date has not been determined. The on-sale date should be sometime between early December and mid January. We’ll be updating you along the way. There will be General Admission Floor Tickets, and Reserved Seat Tickets available. This venue also offers some “Club Seats”, which are reserved seats in the lower mezzanine that have access to two private lounges (private bars, restaurant and restrooms). 3-11 Day is a long night of entertainment, so you should make the decision of what is better for you…floor or seats. Here is a seat map: http://www.neworleansarena.com/site212.php. Wherever you may be, you are going to have a blast, as 311 and their fans always make this an electrifying night!!HOTELS:
The arena is walking distance to many hotels. Nearby hotels (within 3/4 of a mile) include Holiday Inn, Marriott, Wyndham, Hyatt, Wyndsor Court, Comfort Inn, Days Inn, etc. Locations in the mid-city area or in French Quarter area are all nearby. We look to establish some special hotel group rates. We will get this information to you as soon as we have it.POST-SHOW PARTY:
After the big 3-11 Day Show, fans can walk en-masse to the French Quarter! It’s 1 mile from the arena. And there we can all gather and celebrate on historic Bourbon Street and it’s many bars and clubs…This is an afterparty not to be missed!!“GOING TO 3-11 DAY” MYSPACE PAGE:
