The Eldorado Ballroom

The reimagined Eldorado Ballroom channels the historic venue’s legacy as a visual and spiritual symbol of the Third Ward community. Operated by Lucille’s 1913 — the philanthropic arm of Lucille’s Hospitality Group — the Ballroom’s return serves as a living extension of the non-profit’s mission to empower communities to discover a self-sustainable livelihood through cultural and culinary arts. The venue’s future will honor its past, continuing to serve as a home for both established and emerging Black musicians to share their talents as well as providing a community-centered space for the neighborhood to host, gather, and celebrate.
