2012 Mardi Gras Parade Schedule
The Carnival season starts on the Epiphany, January 6th, and continues through "Fat Tuesday" (Mardi Gras), the day before Ash Wednesday. The season really kicks into high gear on the Thursday before Mardi Gras, when New Orleans hosts more than a dozen premier parades. This is THE best time to visit New Orleans. And remember: New Orleans hotel rooms are typically sold out before the Christmas holidays. Book your room in a New Orleans hotel on a Mardi Gras parade route today! Please note: * New Orleans Parades. Parade schedules are subject to change. Check back for details. | |||
