Built around Mississippi River plantations and transport routes, Kenner grew into one of Jefferson Parish’s largest suburban cities. It extends from the river’s south bank toward Lake Pontchartrain, immediately west of New Orleans, and forms part of southeastern Louisiana’s closely connected urban area. Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport is in Kenner, while the Rivertown district recalls the community’s earlier riverfront identity through museums, performance venues and heritage attractions. Mardi Gras season also brings local parades and events, reflecting the traditions of the wider New Orleans area.
