Attending a show there soon, but we've never been there before.
Anything I need to know about the theater, area, parking, etc.?  Carry-friendly or posted no-carry? Thanks.  |

I used to go there for shows back when I was at South Alabama. I don't remember there being any no carry then... of course that's been 30 years or so.
Its s nice venue, there are a couple of Central Parking lots nearby (2 blocks?) but its fee parking. $5 or so.

There is pay parking across the street with access being on Government
We'd use that lot when we went to shows at the Soul Kitchen, As for carrying, I couldn't tell you. There used to be a pretty decent brew-pub on Dauphine but don't know its staus either. |

Thanks, guys.
My wife and I are going to be down at the Grand in Point Clear for a few days without the kids (celebrating our upcoming 20th wedding anniversary) and I am taking her to the Saenger as a surprise. She loves Travis Tritt's music, always has, but we've never seen him live and we prefer smaller venues like that these days (go to the MPAC in Montgomery when someone we like is there). When I discovered he was going to be playing the Saenger while we are at the Grand (not that far away), I decided to get some tickets on the sly and put them in her card. She knows I want to eat at Felix's while we are down there (she's never eaten there), so I've already set the stage by telling her we'll have to get there early based on my past experiences. So we'll grab an early dinner with the blue hair crowd and then we won't be far from the theater. I'm going to put off revealing it as long as I can... ideally, she won't know until we drive up and she sees the marquee, but if she figures it out sooner that'll be okay as well (she's VERY smart, I don't get to fool/surprise her often  ). |

Drove by the Saenger today and didn't notice any obvious "no guns" signage.
The brew pub next door is open for business. Hero's is a local favorite bar and grill just down Dauphin Street by the Cathedral Park. The best parking is on Government Street across from the Radisson Admiral Semmes Hotel. Get there a little early and you can park close to the theater. Bring cash for parking just in case, but the machine there (in case of no attendant) takes plastic. |

Very neat old theater, and Tritt put on a great show (I'm not as big a fan of his as my wife, but he's really good live and I had forgotten how long he's been around/how many big hits he had).
If you are in the area and an act you like happens to play the Saenger, go check it out. Nice smaller venue for a show. Thanks again, guys.
