The Orpheum Theater    129 Roosevelt Way     New Orleans, LA  70122

Rear Loading Zone 122 South Rampart St. New Orleans, LA 70122

The Orpheum does NOT have any parking facilities or arrangements.  The surface parking lot adjacent to the theater is separately owned and operated as valet parking for the Roosevelt Hotel.  We can arrange access from South Rampart St. to our backstage loading door.  But, this is for active loading and unloading ONLY.  All vehicles MUST be removed from the lot as soon as loading is complete.  NO artist, guest, crew, or staff parking will be allowed.  Don't ask.  Any unauthorized vehicles are subject to towing without warning.  If you wish to attempt to make arrangements with the Roosevelt Hotel / Ace Parking for use of the lot, you must contact them directly.  The Orpheum does not involve itself in making parking arrangements.  There is also a multi-level parking garage next door to the theater for artist, crew, and guest parking.  Cost may vary according to seasonal and special event demands.

Buses and semi trucks are loaded on the public street.  We can park buses in front of the theater on Roosevelt Way.  We can also park buses and trucks behind the theater on South Rampart St.  Advance is required so that parking meters may be bagged.  As this is a public street, we do operate at the mercy of the City of New Orleans, and the courtesy of other drivers to respect the no parking signage and keep those areas available for your use.  The typical push from street parking a semi truck to the backstage loading door is around 150'.  There is some difficulty navigating cases around the curb and sidewalk, but once we get to the parking lot, it is smooth.

The Orpheum does NOT have a fork lift on site.  If a fork is needed, advance arrangements must be made.  Fork lift rental rates would normally be settled as a show expense.
