Noah Young brings his trio to the Barn for a night that’s just flat-out fun to be in the room for.

FREE LIVE TRIVIA & MUSIC: NOLA Brewing's Christmas Extravaganza
Sunday December 21st
We’re mashing up two crowd-favorites for one big Sunday night before Christmas. Start the evening with Final Draft Movie Trivia: Christmas Movie Edition, then stick around as The Hunks of Coal take over with a raucous mix of holiday smut and oddball covers—absolutely not the soundtrack for a “family night out,” so call the sitter and lean into the chaos.
We’ll be pouring fresh eggnog and our winter seasonal Girl Stout Cookie, the perfect pairing for a night that gets progressively funnier (and weirder) as it goes. Come for the trivia, stay for the music, and make Sunday night feel like a holiday all its own.
05:15 PM - 10:00 PM
