Can You Bring Outside Food or Drinks into the New Orleans Venue?

Pelican fans can’t bring any outside food or drinks into the venue. However, with the arena in downtown New Orleans, you will find plenty of bars and restaurants to visit before or after a game if you are hungry and thirsty. Those places nearby include Taqueria D.F, Dave and Busters, PJ’s Coffee, and Smoothie King Juice shop.
