What to do and see in Warehouse/Central Business District, Louisiana (LA): The Best Concerts & Shows

February 13, 2022 Esmeralda Fenner

Laissez les bons temps rouler! In New Orleans the good times are perpetually rolling down Bourbon Street, which, thanks to the city’s annual Mardi Gras celebration, has quite a party animal reputation. Once you’ve soaked up the scenery of the historic French Quarter, tour the elegant Garden District and meet the colorful characters of Frenchmen Street. Experience the city's supernatural vibe at the Voodoo Museum or by taking a guided ghost or vampire tour through taverns, alleyways, and cemeteries.

The Carousel Bar & Lounge

This famous bar revolves around the room.

Excellent bar just off the lobby of the Hotel Monteleone. The circular bar is decorated as a carousel and rotates as you enjoy a cool beverage. Plenty of non-rotating seating as well. Live entertainment in the evenings.

Saenger Theatre

Originally built in 1927, the Saenger Theatre was designed to reflect a magnificent 15th century Italian courtyard and gardens, with a starlit evening sky ceiling, arched surroundings, statuary, columns and decorative moldings. In January 2012, the City of New Orleans, Canal Street Development Corporation (CSDC) and ACE Theatrical Group formed a public-private partnership to carry out a $52 million restoration project after the iconic theatre was severely damaged during Hurricane Katrina. The Saenger Theatre reopened in fall 2013, authentically restored to the finest level of detail, with state-of-the-art technological improvements and updated first-class amenities. The theatre hosts a wide variety of performing arts attractions including live theater, comedy shows and musical acts. The Saenger Theatre is located at the corner of Canal and North Rampart streets in downtown New Orleans and is on the National Register of Historic Places.

The Saenger Theater is an amazingly beautiful place to see a Broadway play or enjoy a concert. The theater was tastefully remodeled in 2013. I have had the opportunity to enjoy seating at the Club Level, near the front row, in the middle and at the back of the theater and I must admit all the seats were great. However, Club Level seating is magnificent (must be purchased for the season and is in high demand) because parking is included as well as a small selection of food, a bartender, and restrooms that are easily accessible. The seating in the front of the theater is amazing for a birds eye view and proved to be very valuable for the Hamilton performance. I must admit that I have enjoyed so many wonderful plays at the Saenger Theater for 2018-2019 (Aladdin, Elf, Hamilton, and Cinderella) theater season. Patrons please be mindful that cameras are not aloud in the theater and if you bring one it will have to be returned to your car. Also, please note that no outside food and drinks are aloud and all bags are subject to search. However, the experience at the Saenger is well worth some minor inconveniences and the money. The shows are great and the theater simply beautiful. The Saenger is indeed a superb theater to see all types of shows. Make it a point to see at least one show per year because you will not regret it.

Mahogany Jazz Hall

Reviewed By AmyOneThousand

My boyfriend and I stayed next door and we decided to stop in for the burlesque one evening, it was such a fun time! We enjoyed a drink and live music while we waited, and then we went in the back for the burlesque and got to learn a little bit of history during the show. I really liked that it was such a small venue, it makes for a very intimate and personalized experience. The green fairy's special absinthe drinks were a great bonus!

21st Amendment Bar at La Louisiane

Reviewed By MistressVee - Fort Lauderdale, United States

Stumbled onto 21st Amendment after an incredible meal across the street at Acme. It's dimly lit, very intimate, has phenomenal jazz players and serves divine craft cocktails by un-obnoxious bartenders (priceless)! It's not Bourbon Street bottom-shelf booze, dosed out by the gallon so expect to pay a premium - but I assure you that the music and stellar craft cocktails makes it worth its weight in gold.

Reviewed By traceeeeeeeeeee - Sterling Heights, United States

This venue is great. I loved all the bars. Food was so so. There aren't a ton of seats. There are seats on either side of the stage and way behind it. We had seats but ended going down on the main floor.
