About The Broadside

The Broadside sits within The Broad Theater complex in the heart of New Orleans, offering a flexible indoor/outdoor venue experience with two stages, two bars, and a full-service restaurant. With a seated capacity around 100 and open-air configurations that host roughly 150 attendees, it’s an intimate, versatile space ideal for film screenings, concerts, and community events. Parking is convenient with an on-site lot and street options, and the venue is well served by multiple transit options on Broad Street. Read on for seating details, getting here, and nearby hotel and dining recommendations to help you plan your visit.

Seating at The Broadside uses Adirondack-style chairs placed in pairs on mats across an open gravel lot, creating a relaxed, casual atmosphere without a fixed seating chart. This makes every event feel intimate and easygoing. If you’re attending a screening, performance, or festival programming, secure your seats in advance and arrive early to enjoy the venue’s open-air ambiance and the Broad Theater ecosystem. For parking and transit, there’s an on-site lot at the entrance and nearby street parking, with public transit access via several Broad Street routes. After the show, consider nearby hotel options and a variety of restaurants within a short drive or ride. The Broadside has hosted notable events including Sundance Film Festival screenings via the New Orleans Film Society in 2021 and continues to feature open-air cinema and community programming as part of The Broad Theater family.
