Home to the New Orleans Saints, The Louisiana Superdome hosts sporting, entertainment, and exhibition events. The Dome, which seats more than 72,000 people, serves as the venue for the BCS Sugar Bowl, the Bayou Classic, and the Essence Music Festival. Hotels adjacent to the Louisiana Superdome put you a short walk away from your event. Audubon Park Golf Course, an 18-hole, par-62 course, is only a few miles away. While you're taking in a round, you can also enjoy the hundred-year-old oak trees and four lagoons the course has to offer.
