The Mystic Knights of Adonis

Founded in 1999, The Mystic Knights of Adonis shares only a similarity in name to The Mystic Krewe of Adonis which paraded in Orleans Parish during the 1950's. Adonis was the epitome of male beauty, admired by mortals and gods alike in Greek Mythology. This Krewe is comprised of 200 male and female riders, 16 floats, marching bands and can be seen on the Westbank in Jefferson Parish.
