Suggestions for Arts and Entertainment near Central Business District, New Orleans

AYHJA • April 22, 2017Life changing! I live in Washington DC and have been to the Smithsonian lots of times. That said, this museum met and exceeded my expectations. It's worth its own trip to New Orleans.

Tom B. • May 7, 2015Great music. $8 too shelf, $7 bottom. Decent service, nice setup. Definitely worth a stop to get the N'awlins feeling.

Rinaldo D. • December 26, 2019Free, fun tour. A few samples. Great quick diversion

Jessica L. • March 31, 2017Awesome venue. Attended a wedding there and the staff were attentive, professional, and efficient.

Nathan C. • June 21, 2015Really interesting history of New Orleans and free. Cecilia Hock was rude and made our initial engagement with the museum a bit unfortunate. Everything else was fantastic.

C S. • April 22, 2019Great theatre with beautiful interior. Order drinks/snacks on the ATG Ordertorium app to avoid waiting in queues during a break.

Feed Me Good • May 8, 2013Great sweets @ Bittersweet Confections. Red velvet cake in a cup-yum!

Dr. N.sezgin ö. • October 26, 2022Waaw, Jazz, marijuana, French influence, spicy dishes and hot sauces all in one. Here you are dizzy and you are heading towards Nirvana.

AJ T. • November 12, 2015Great movie and great overview; I thought it was the best part of the whole museum.

Kerry K. • January 3, 2011Great jazz and a tasty (though expensive) hurricane. Go here!

Chris I. • November 14, 2017Amazing small park with live jazz playing groups. Wonderful! Beer and New Orleans food is also available. Free entry.

Daniya T. • March 8, 2014What a phenomenal place! Do not miss it. The space is small, so it's really worth it to buy VIP tickets online: no waiting in line, perfect seats, great music. Do this!

Tavarius W. • February 15, 2014Very nice theater! Architecture was awesome. Lots of attention to detail.

Brian F. • February 18, 2015Best Mardi Gras parade bar none. See it in Midcity to understand the excitement and home town love for this superkrewe. Or head to city park and check out the floats before they roll.

PARANOLA • January 20, 2012A wonderful place to see a show. While there keep an eye out for one of the many spirits that are said to inhabit the building. Note, others have commented on some of them here!

Deanna R. • January 16, 2018Great cheap museum where you learn a lot about medicines or the past as well as NOLAs history

Gabriel H. • September 24, 2015Upstairs is great. Has a very nice balcony and lots of cozy seating. Great for a private event.

Laur L. • July 20, 2018Such a cool theater! Although if you are afraid of heights do not get balcony. Very narrow stairs and not much legroom for seating. But it was a fun experience.

Wayne A. • June 24, 2018Must see. Great air power planes of WW2. Huge space with many hanging in a hangar
