New Orleans has hosted two world's fairs, and both of them helped rescue the city, even though they both were financial flops.

The 1984 fair brought a wave of revitalization, which helped sustain the city for the next 20 years.

The 1884 fair helped pull New Orleans out of the post-war economic malaise and helped establish it as a destination city among "must see" attractions in America.

The 2084 Worlds Fair in New Orleans will be the first World’s Fair held under water and will revitalize the city into a modern day functioning Atlantis under water embracing climate change.
