In what city did The Doors perform their final concert with Jim Morrison?

The Doors performed their final concert with Jim Morrison in New Orleans. It took place at The Warehouse on December 12, 1970, near the end of the band’s original touring career.

The show came after a turbulent period for Morrison and the group. Following the Miami concert controversy in 1969, The Doors faced canceled dates and legal problems, while Morrison increasingly focused on recording and poetry. The New Orleans performance was one of the band’s last major live appearances before Morrison moved to Paris in 1971.

The concert is also notable because it included the second and final live performance of “Riders on the Storm.” The Warehouse itself later became an important New Orleans music venue, hosting artists such as The Allman Brothers Band and The Clash before it was demolished in 1989.

A common mix-up is naming Los Angeles, where The Doors formed and recorded much of their music. However, their last concert with Morrison was held at The Warehouse in New Orleans, not in their California hometown.
