Nestled adjacent to Bayou Segnette State Park, the Bayou Segnette Sports Complex is only minutes from downtown New Orleans and the historic French Quarter. The John A. Alario Sr. Event Center, the Alario Center Festival Grounds and Segnette Field, located in Westwego, Louisiana, combine to be the premier sports and entertainment complex in the Greater New Orleans area.

The Alario Center, opening its doors in the spring of 1999, designated to be a multi-purpose facility and sports center, has become the hub of social and cultural activity on the West Bank of the mighty Mississippi River. The 2,000-seat Main Arena plays host to events from basketball and boxing to consumer shows and graduations. The center is a joint venture between the State of Louisiana, Jefferson Parish, and Louisiana Stadium and Exposition District (LSED).

Segnette Field joined the Bayou Segnette Sports Complex on May 3, 2002. This outstanding venue for baseball features grandstand seating for 650 (under a cantilevered roof with unobstructed sight lines), a professional sound system, Scoreboard and AAA-quality field lights. In February 2003, Segnette Field became the new home for Loyola University Baseball, the ballpark’s first permanent home team.

Expansion! The new Hall C expansion adds an additional 19,250 square feet of exhibit space to the Alario Center. This addition will also give us the ability to have up to six basketball courts or up to ten volleyball courts and will also include a new concession stand and additional lobby space. Over the Alario Center’s 15-year history the center has served as the training facility of the NBA’s New Orleans Hornets for 10 years and has been the practice facility of the Arena Football League’s New Orleans Voodoo.
