Add your masala.
New member applications are now open for Mardi Gras 2027.
We welcome and celebrate everything that makes our members unique: their many nationalities, religions, diverse experiences, gender identities and sexual orientations. And we ingite within them a powerful sense of belonging, community and pride.
Multigenerational Accessibility
All ages and abilities are welcome and encouraged to join our Krewe!
Youth under age 21 do not have a membership fee. Children under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. [Note: While parade restrictions may limit youth participation in some parades, they are always welcome at all other Krewe events!]
We’re committed to making our events accessible to everyone! For members who have mobility issues or are older, most of our parades feature support vehicles allowing you to ride along or take a rest when needed.
Please email us with any specific questions regarding parade accessibility or membership requirements. We’re happy to work directly with you to find what accommodation works best for your needs.
