This is not a meet-and-greet rope line. It is a celebration with a legend in the room, on a terrace built for exactly this kind of night.

One Ticket · Everything In
Who could say no to a night like this?
Every ticket is all-inclusive. No drink tabs. No upcharge at the humidor. Walk in, light up, and let the night take care of itself.
Premium Cigars To Keep
Over $100 in retail cigars placed in your hand, pulled from the Cuban Creations humidor. Yours to enjoy that night or take home.
Open Premium Bar
Seven full hours of top-shelf pours. Bourbon, rum, cognac, cocktails. Real spirits, not well drinks.
A Legend In The Room
Karl Malone, live and in person on the terrace. Stories, photos, and the kind of night you cannot buy twice.
The Cuban Creations Terrace
A private night on the second-story Toulouse Terrace balcony, in the heart of the Quarter on the city's biggest weekend.
Seven Hours, Top-Shelf
And the bar? Wide open.
This is New Orleans, so the pours match the room. Hand-built cocktails, craft spirits, and the house classics the French Quarter comes for. Order another. It's on the house.
The Company You'll Keep
Good cigars. Better company.
A room full of people who get it. Toasts, laughter, and a legend holding court on the terrace.

Tonight's Humidor
Over $100 in world-class cigars, in your hand.
Your cigars come straight from the Cuban Creations humidor, the same selection that earned the lounge a place in Cigar Aficionado. Think the calibre of the makers we stock every night:
