JOHN A. ALARIO SR. EVENT CENTER & SEGNETTE FIELD
at the Bayou Segnette Sports Complex

 


Nestled adjacent to Bayou Segnette State Park, the Bayou Segnette Sports Complex is only minutes from downtown New Orleans and the historic French Quarter.  The John A. Alario Sr. Event Center, the Alario Center Festival Grounds and Segnette Field, located in Westwego, Louisiana, combine to be the premier sports and entertainment complex in the Greater New Orleans area.  The Alario Center has also serve as the temporary practice facility of the NBA's New Orleans Hornets. 



The Alario Center, opening its doors in the spring of 1999, designated to be a multi-purpose facility and sports center, has become the hub of social and cultural activity on the West Bank of the mighty Mississippi River.  The 2,200-seat Main Arena plays host to events from basketball and boxing to consumer shows and graduations.  The center is a joint venture between the State of Louisiana, Jefferson Parish, and Louisiana Stadium and Exposition District (LSED).



Segnette Field joined the Bayou Segnette Sports Complex on May 3, 2002.   This outstanding venue for baseball features grandstand seating for 650 (under a cantilevered roof with unobstructed sight lines), a professional sound system, Scoreboard and AAA-quality field lights.  In February 2003, Segnette Field became the new home for Loyola University Baseball, the ballpark's first permanent home team.

Expansion is on the way!  
Construction began in January 2007 and this new hall should be ready for events some time around May 2008.  The new hall will add an additional 20,000 square feet of exhibit space to the Alario Center.  This addition will also give us the ability to have up to six basketball courts or up to ten volleyball courts and will also include a new concession stand and additional lobby space.

T
he Alario Center Festival Grounds offers 10 acres of outdoor space ideal for music festivals or outdoor sporting events.  The Festival Grounds has hosted the Mardi Gras Paintball Open and Country on Whiskey Bayou which featured Grammy Award winner, John Michael Montgomery and multi-platinum recording artist, Tracy Lawrence.


Alario Center, Segnette Field & the Alario Center Festival Grounds do not allow any outside food or beverage to come into the complex.  For more information visit Bayou Segnette Sports Complex Policies.  Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
