Touchdown in NOLA Custom Corporate Event Welcome Gifts

When the big NFL game is hosted in New Orleans, that calls for a vibrant and energetic custom corporate welcome gift that captures the spirit of NOLA and the Super Bowl. Our corporate clients approached us to create custom event welcome gifts for their VIP suite guests attending Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans, and we knew this would be a fun and exciting design opportunity.

The goal? Capture the high energy of the NFL's biggest game of the season while infusing each gift with unmistakable NOLA flair. The result? A curated gift experience we call “Touchdown in NOLA.” A custom Super Bowl gift experience that is infused with Southern charm and is a celebration of local flavor, thoughtful detail, and football-day indulgence.

We wanted to go beyond the typical sports-themed swag gifts and highlight the essence and soul of New Orleans with these custom corporate welcome gifts for some of the NFL's top corporate sponsors and suite holders.

A True Taste Of The Big Easy

It wouldn’t be New Orleans without bold colors and bold flavors, which is why we made Zapp’s Voodoo Chips the star of the show. Not only do they bring a deliciously addictive crunch, but their colorful packaging also set the tone for the entire gift aesthetic. Not to mention, they played off the electric atmosphere of the Super Bowl perfectly!

We paired the chips with locally made sweets to balance the savory crunch with a touch of Southern sugar. It was an ideal pairing for guests looking to snack during the big game and helped guests feel like locals from their first bite.

For keepsake gift items to help VIP guests remember their Super Bowl experience, we included custom souvenir cups and a set of leather embossed “NOLA” coasters.

Everything was neatly nestled inside a classic wicker basket, a packaging choice inspired by the easy elegance and hospitality of Southern living. The basket not only made for an impactful first impression, but also gave guests something practical and beautiful to take home.

Custom gift tags with the Super Bowl LIX Mardi Gras-inspired logo adorned each gift basket, tied with deep orange ribbon to coordinate with the big game’s color scheme.
