With the Super Bowl nearly here, make note of these French Quarter Safety Restrictions: Beginning February 5, 2025, only those vehicles dropping off visitors to hotels, residents of the area, and emergency vehicles will be allowed into the area from Canal Street to St. Ann Street between Decatur Street and North Rampart Street. Residents and hotel visitors must provide proof of hotel reservation/residency prior to entry.
Residents and visitors should be aware of these key reminders:
• The Caesars Superdome is a “No Drone Zone” for the Super Bowl.
• Concealed weapons are prohibited in bars, casinos, government buildings and venues such as the Superdome.
• If carrying a concealed handgun, you must not be under the influence of drugs or alcohol, and you should never handle the firearm in a way that could cause harm to others.
• When interacting with law enforcement officers, it is your responsibility to notify them if you are armed.
Troopers will be assigned to the French Quarter, Central Business District, and key roadways and event locations, including the Caesars Superdome, providing high-visibility vehicle and foot patrols throughout the week.
