Weren't invited to any A-list parties? No worries, here are some free Super Bowl events happening around New Orleans.

NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - Super Bowl LIX is taking over New Orleans, and the city is rolling out the red carpet with a week of events. From star-studded parties and concerts to immersive fan experiences, here’s everything you need to know about the biggest events happening before the big game.
