Best Concert Venues In New Orleans

Here are some of the best concert venues in New Orleans.

Preservation Hall

726 St Peter, New Orleans, LA 70116

Here’s what one reviewer says about Preservation Hall: “Incredible music! Unbelievably skilled and entertaining musicians! Small venue so get there early if you want to be able to see the performance well from your wooden bench. No AC so it gets hot and stuffy, we used the flyer the staff hands out before the show as a fan. Good chance some band members will stay for a few minutes to say hello when the performance is over!”

Joy Theater

1200 Canal St, New Orleans, LA 70112 | (504) 528-9569

Here’s what one reviewer says about Joy Theater: “My favorite theater style venue in New Orleans! It’s so well run and organized. You can get tickets at the box office in advance, online, or on the day of the show. I’ve seen 2 VIP shows here, and both were phenomenal experiences.”

Tipitina’s

501 Napoleon Ave, New Orleans, LA 70115 | (504) 895-8477

Here’s what one reviewer says about Tipitina’s: “Tipitinas is home. It is one of the staples of New Orleans. All of the greats have played there and you never know who may show up and jam together. Plus it has been home to so many new and upcoming bands that have gone off to be huge hits. Great staff & owners. Just all around top notch. Glad it has survived the pandemic and can’t wait to see a show!”

Snug Harbor Jazz Bistro

626 Frenchmen St, New Orleans, LA 70116 | (504) 949-0696

Here’s what one reviewer says about Snug Harbor Jazz Bistro: “Snug Harbor was amazing! I’m a first time visitor to the venue from out of town. I purchased my tix online and picked them up on the day of the show from Will Call. Saw the 8pm show with Jamison Ross….AMAZING show. Eat before you go to the show….only drinking allowed during show in the music room. AMAZING AMAZING show!”
