Parade of Homes in NOLA
The 2026 Parade of Homes, hosted by the Home Builders Association of Greater New Orleans (HBAGNO), brings ingenuity and inspiration for homebuyers and professionals.
The Parade of Homes is a regional home tour showcasing cutting-edge new builds and the latest in home renovation. Spanning from multi-functional spaces to innovative lighting fixtures, and state-of-the-art plumbing practices, the homes on display offer fresh perspectives on quality homes. Designed and built by award-winning builders in the region, each home on the tour will have something unique to offer.
With true New Orleans flair, the tour is a self-guided "parade" scattered across the Greater New Orleans region in places such as Audubon Park, English Turn in the Westbank, Old Metairie, Gretna, and Westwego. Visitors will have the chance to meet with local builders, architects, and real estate agents and gain valuable insight. For those looking to buy a home, build, renovate, or gain working professional knowledge, the Parade of Homes is a great place to build relationships with people in the business.
