The shooting was reported to law enforcement at 2:16am ET on Saturday morning on the street that draws tourists to the city for its vibrant nightlife.
Authorities said the shooting took place on the edge of the French Quarter, close to Canal street.
Two of the victims wounded by the gunfire arrived at the hospital by private vehicle, while two others were taken by ambulance. The fifth victim received treatment at the scene, NOLA reported.
