Earlier today, the French Quarter Fest announced the plans for its 2012 edition, the food for which will include some first-time participants like K-Paul's, Blue Dot Donuts and Grand Isle. This will also be the first year since Katrina that there will be fireworks, which will be sponsored by Tropical Isle. Apparently their "dancing, inflatable hand grenade" joined the bar's owners in announcing that last fact. [Offbeat]
