Same campus. Different event rhythm.
The current venue address is 1501 Dave Dixon Drive. The arena shares parking infrastructure with the Superdome complex, but entrances, doors, security and parking availability can vary by event.

Arrive
Choose your downtown/campus posture, then verify the exact event’s parking, rideshare or transit conditions.
Enter
Door opening and entry locations are event-controlled. Check the event page rather than assuming one permanent gate routine.
Experience
Once inside, shift attention from logistics to the basketball or arena event you traveled for.
EXPERIENCE
Arena energy changes faster than the building does.

VERIFY
Event-specific rules control the visit.
Current venue guidance says bag policy, door times, entrances and some parking/rideshare details can vary by event. The complex parking garages are shared, and not every facility is available for every event.
