Caesars Superdome is a landmark domed stadium in New Orleans and home to the New Orleans Saints. The venue hosts NFL games, college football championships, NCAA basketball Final Fours, Super Bowls, and major concerts.
Overview
The Superdome opened in 1975 as the Louisiana Superdome and remains one of the most recognizable indoor venues in American sports. Caesars Entertainment acquired naming rights in 2021. Located at 1500 Sugar Bowl Drive beside the New Orleans CBD and the Smoothie King Center, the stadium is operated with the Louisiana Stadium and Exposition District and ASM Global. Extensive post-Katrina renovations modernized seating, clubs, and the roof while preserving the dome’s signature circular form.
