This is too cool. A ton of time and money have been invested in renovating the Caesars Superdome ahead of the 2024 season and Super Bowl LIX, and you can tell. The New Orleans Saints shared an impressive drone camera video highlighting all of the new changes, and it’s well worth a watch. You can find it here.
You get a good look at the upgraded concourses, improved stadium seating, and open-air atriums as well as areas that aren’t public-facing like the locker room, media conference room, and other spaces behind the scenes. Using an aerial drone to cover almost every inch of the arena was a great choice.
And this overhaul was intended to extend the longevity of the venue; time will tell if that approach works out, but it’s easy to walk away from this tour feeling impressed. The Saints have played home games at the Superdome since 1975, with New Orleans hosting ten Super Bowls — soon tying the Miami’s record with eleven. While the Chicago Bears and Buffalo Bills each have plans in the works for new stadiums, the Saints will trail only the Kansas City Chiefs (at Arrowhead Stadium since 1972) and Green Bay Packers (at Lambeu Field since 1957) as playing at the most-venerable homefields around the NFL in the near future.
With big events on the horizon including nine Saints home games, the Super Bowl, college football bowl games and major musician tours, we should expect the Caesars Superdome to continue to play host to high-profile events for years to come.
