Why ‘Today With Hoda & Jenna’ Is in New Orleans
Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager
Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager are celebrating a major milestone—and they're bringing Today show fans along for the adventure!
In honor of the 5th anniversary of the pair's Today With Hoda & Jenna segment, the two broadcasters are jetting off to one of their "favorite places," New Orleans, and will be recording the talk show from the southern city for a whole week.
In a social media clip shared via Instagram on Saturday, April 6, they announced that from Monday, April 8 through Friday, April 12, viewers can follow along to catch all the fun in The Big Easy.
"See you in NOLA next week to celebrate 5 years of @hodaandjenna ?????????? sponsored by @neworleansandco," the caption of the upload read as they teased their celebration of "laughs, friendship, and surprises."
Jenna Bush Hager first joined the fourth hour of the news broadcast alongside Kotb—who has been a mainstay on the show since 2007—on April 8, 2019. Prior to her debut, Kathie Lee Gifford co-anchored the lively spot.
In the comment section, fans added to the excitement for Kotb and Bush Hager's special occasion.

Someone else chimed in with an uplifting note for the duo, showing gratitude for what they bring to TV: "??You gals do make me laugh!! With all the hard news of late, it's great to have a show take us away from all the hard stuff of the day!!!"
