New Orleans is set to host its 11th Super Bowl and the excitement around the city is palpable. As we get ready to welcome another huge crowd, let’s talk about what to expect this week for locals and visitors to our great city of New Orleans.  

With over a hundred thousand visitors expected, the economic impact is significant, projected to bring in over $500 million. We’ll talk about how local businesses are gearing up for the influx of fans, and what it’s going to cost visitors for tickets and lodging. 

What about security? Following the recent terrorist attack in the city, the local authorities are ramping up security to ensure a safe environment for everyone attending the Super Bowl. With the involvement of federal resources and expert consultants, fans can expect a heightened security presence during the festivities.
