New Orleans Pelicans Tickets

Born in 2002 in New Orleans, the Pelicans carry the city’s rhythm onto the court at Smoothie King Center, where brass bands, second lines, and a loud, close-to-the-action bowl make every tipoff feel like a festival. The faithful bring Mardi Gras energy and stick around to celebrate every blocked shot and breakaway dunk.

Still chasing their first NBA championship, the Pelicans have built real moments to remember, from the 2007-08 division crown led by Chris Paul to the 2018 sweep of Portland that rocked the league. Anthony Davis authored towering performances, and Zion Williamson’s electric debut reminded fans how quickly the roof can lift. Whether you come for Brandon Ingram’s shotmaking or the team’s relentless pace, you will leave with a highlight and a smile, ready for the next big night in the Crescent City.
