Time with Ty sets fifth annual adults-only Time to Play for March 31 at Carousel Gardens

Time with Ty is bringing back Time to Play for adults on March 31, 2027, at Carousel Gardens in New Orleans City Park, pairing unlimited amusement rides with nonprofit outreach and community partnerships. The event is meant to help attendees have fun, make local connections, and find ways to support area causes.

Why it matters: - Time to Play blends recreation with civic engagement, giving adults a chance to unwind while connecting with New Orleans-area nonprofits. - The event can help attendees find volunteer roles, board service opportunities, and causes to support financially. - Nonprofits and community partners can use the event to reach people in a relaxed setting that encourages conversation and follow-up.

What happened: - Time with Ty announced the fifth annual Time to Play, an adults-only evening set for Wednesday, March 31, 2027, from 6–9 p.m. - The event will take place at Carousel Gardens in New Orleans City Park. - Nonprofit registration and community partnership opportunities are now open.

The details: - Admission includes unlimited rides during the event. - Food and beverages will be available for purchase. - Attendees can meet nonprofit representatives, learn about their missions, and explore ways to get involved locally. - Participating organizations can introduce their work directly to community members in a welcoming, relaxed setting. - Businesses and community partners can support the event while helping create those connections. - The event invitation is framed around three ideas: make time for fun, find your connection, and leave inspired. - More information is available through ticketing and registration details.

Between the lines: - Founder Ty Salvant is positioning play as something adults often postpone, even though work, family responsibilities, and community commitments leave little room for it. - Salvant said many people want to help locally but do not know where to start, and a conversation at the event can open that door. - The format is designed to lower the barrier between community interest and action by pairing social fun with nonprofit introductions.

What's next: - Adults interested in attending can seek ticket information from Time with Ty. - Nonprofit organizations can register to participate and connect with potential volunteers, donors, and advocates. - Businesses can contact Time with Ty about partnership opportunities tied to the event. - Time with Ty is expected to continue building the event’s mix of entertainment and community impact as it enters its fifth year.

The bottom line: - Time to Play is selling more than a night of rides; it is packaging joy, networking, and local giving into one adults-only event.
