A NEW ORLEANS ICON
Since opening its doors in 1975, the Caesars Superdome has stood as one of the most recognizable landmarks in New Orleans and across Louisiana. Designed by renowned architects Curtis & Davis, this 2,000,000-square-foot stadium remains the largest fixed-dome structure in the world. With seating for over 73,000 spectators, it serves as a versatile venue for professional and college sports, major concerts, and other large-scale events.
Beyond its size and functionality, the Superdome holds deep historical and cultural significance. It is officially listed on the National Register of Historic Places, underscoring its importance as both an architectural achievement and a symbol of the region.
Over the decades, the Superdome has hosted some of the biggest events in American sports history, including eight Super Bowls – most recently in 2025 – and six NCAA men’s basketball championships. In college football, it has been the long-time home of the Sugar Bowl, a tradition that began the same year as the stadium opened.
ACOUSTIC WARMTH & SEAMLESS INTEGRATION
Following the devastation of Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the Superdome has undergone continuous renovations. In its latest upgrade, the locker room and its surrounding areas received a major transformation, with contributions from Gustafs and our US supplier CARVART.
Along the vast concourse walls outside the locker room, Gustafs Linear Rib-S in oak veneer adds both acoustic performance and visual warmth to this high-traffic space. The natural wood tones soften the bold interior, integrating effortlessly with surrounding finishes to create a cohesive interior language. Using our concealed Capax mounting system, installation was efficient and adaptable, ensuring seamless alignment across large surfaces.
The project required more than cladding – it demanded precision, tonal harmony, and acoustic optimization. Gustafs and CARVART delivered a system meeting strict standards, including ASTM E84 Class A fire rating, high NRC sound absorption, and sustainable fibre gypsum construction, all while maintaining a clean, minimal aesthetic.
The result is a continuous, architectural surface that enhances acoustics, light, and the overall visitor experience – where performance and design work as one.
