Athletic Park was a sports stadium in New Orleans, Louisiana which opened in 1901. The ballpark was located on the south side of Tulane Avenue between South Carrollton Avenue and South Pierce Street. When the Pelicans moved a few blocks up the street to Pelican Park, this site was replaced by an amusement park called White City. The Pelicans would move back to this lot a few years later and build a new facility called Heinemann Park.

It was home to the New Orleans Pelicans baseball organization from 1901-1908.
