LAFAYETTE, La. - The Cajundome & Convention Center announce that construction is underway on a brand new on-premise beverage outlet. "The Table Room" features a 500-person capacity venue that will provide additional entertainment space and bar service during major Cajundome events.

Construction is nearing completion expected to open in mid-January 2020. The renovated space will serve as a new beverage outlet, featuring a sports bar atmosphere. The venue was once a large storage area that housed equipment, file boxes, and as its namesake suggests, tables.

While the Table Room will not be open daily, it is expected to be open during major Cajundome events, in addition to localized events such as Ragin' Cajun Football games, Mardi Gras, and the Cajun Heartland State Fair, to name a few. The new venue will also provide an opportunity for concert patrons to arrive early and enter the Table Room prior to concert doors opening and socialize with other guests.

The Table Room will also be available for private event rental on non-major Cajundome event days for meetings, social events and more.

"We are very excited to introduce the Table Room to Acadiana and our Cajundome & Convention Center guests," said Director Pam Deville. "This addition will provide another opportunity for us to enhance the overall guest experience at the Cajundome and alleviate some of the congestion that our concession and beer stands experience during major events. We are committed to continuously improving our operating procedures and providing our guests a better overall experience when they come to an event at the Cajundome."

The Cajundome underwent a $22 million renovation back in 2016 and continues to make improvements to the facility and overall guest experience. Tickets for upcoming events can be purchased at the Cajundome Box Office, www.Ticketmaster.com, or by phone at 800-745-3000. For more information on group and suite sales, visit www.cajundome.com.
