Gallier Hall is the central hub of NOEW 2023, and is made possible through NOEW’s strong, ongoing partnership with the City of New Orleans itself and the Mayor’s Office of Cultural Economy. Gallier Hall exudes New Orleans culture and history from its beautiful, renovated antique furnishings to the mesmerizing chandeliers. The building was completed in 1853 and will be 170 years old this year. Over the course of its’ years, it served as City Hall for over a decade.
Gallier Hall has hosted important figures from Jefferson Davis and General Beauregard to the Russian Grand Duke Alexis Romanoff to The King and Queen of Spain. It was considered the most important building in New Orleans during the pre-war period. Today, Gallier Hall acts as an intersection between the old and modern New Orleans, as it relishes in historic antiques, art, and furniture, while also hosting innovative and forward thinking events such as New Orleans Entrepreneur Week.
THURSDAY 3/30 - EVENING
FRIDAY 3/31 - ALL DAY
Generations Hall - aka the Metropolitan night club - was built in the early 1820s and originally served as a sugar refinery. Since then, the building has been completely renovated with the mission of maintaining the old New Orleans culture through jazz.

With respect and nods to the past, Generations Hall is also now equipped with state of the art audio and video technology. From Big Band to Disco,from Cocktail Jazz to Top 40, Generations Hall provides sound, lighting, and vibes for events that will exceed your expectations.
For NOEW 2023, Generations Hall will be the featured venue for both IDEApitch and the kick-off of NOEW Fest!
