No longer pretty in pink: Gallier Hall’s IBERIABANK Ballroom

One of the most used and most popular rooms in Gallier Hall is the newly renovated IBERIABANK Ballroom. Thanks to a gift from IBERIABANK, the space was completely restored, from its beautiful floors to the chandelier.

It’s been an ideal venue for generations, and we took immense care in every update. The paint and colors were chosen with the help of color specialist Louis Aubert to ensure historical accuracy and a cohesive aesthetic.

Many New Orleanians will remember when it was painted a bright pink, but today its walls boast a subtler grey, allowing its colorful triptych to stand out.
