Mardi Gras Indians Super Sunday - 3/19

Mardi Gras Indians have been parading in New Orleans during Carnival season at least since the mid-19th century. The tribes consist of Black carnival revelers who dress up for Mardi Gras in beautifully decorated, intricate suits influenced by the ceremonial apparel of Native Americans. Mardi Gras Indians and their tribes parade throughout the City on Super Sunday, but the most popular celebration occurs in Central City. Notwithstanding the popularity of such activities for tourists and residents alike, the phenomenon of the Mardi Gras Indians is said to reflect both a vital musical history and an equally vital attempt to express internal social dynamics. Don’t miss this unique cultural event!

Southern Decadence - September 1 - 5!

Southern Decadence is an annual event held by the gay and lesbian community during Labor Day Weekend, culminating in a parade through the French Quarter on the Sunday before Labor Day. “Decadence”, as it’s commonly referred to, originated in 1972 as an end-of-summer party where 40-50 friends, both gay and straight, dressed as their favorite decadent Southerner. The group threw another party two weeks later to bid farewell to a friend who left New Orleans to join his partner in Michigan. Decadence is like Mardi Gras in that there are parades, bead throwing, street and dance parties. Southern Decadence can be sexual in tone and is generally geared towards adult revelers. Have some decadent fun in the sun!
