Republic New Orleans, an elegant cabaret-style music lounge, is known for its constantly evolving entertainment through music, fashion, film and the arts. With several different spaces including mezzanine levels, the space can accommodate groups ranging from 10 to 650 comfortably.

A Brief History of The Republic

The turn-of-the-century building was originally used as a holding facility for coffee being exported via the Mississippi River, located just yards away. The space sat dormant for years, preserved as if in a time capsule. The venue was finally revived as a part of the “Australian Pavilion” for the 1984 World’s Fair. Shortly thereafter, Oliver Stone took his turn with the building, developing it into a set for his critically acclaimed “JFK,” which was based and filmed partly in New Orleans. Thereafter, the space became a bastion for rock music, hosting bands such as the Foo Fighters, Better Than Ezra, and The Strokes.

Press

“With a slight polish in a city known and loved for its faded glory, Republic is breathing new life into the Not So Big Easy by bringing in big national acts, and hosting film nights, fashion events, and themed parties.”
