Enter the Parade

Does your group, organization, or business want to build a float, decorate a car, organize a walking entry, or become a sponsor? It’s easy to join, and HUGE fun! REACH OUT TO US for ideas on how to get started if you’d like… we love to help new krewes and businesses join the fun!

Before you submit your entry, you’ll want to know about our parade entry guidelines. There are written instructions for all participants, and here they are:

General guidelines for parade entries

Instructions for parade drivers

Instructions for parade walkers

And here are the barricade map and the parade route map.

Hold Harmless:
All we have is a 1963 Chevy pickup and an old cat. IF YOU REGISTER BY MAIL, YOU MUST SUBMIT A SIGNED COPY THE DAY OF THE PARADE. Copies will be made available at check in.

GENERAL ENTRIES

Individual non-commercial entries, school, community service, non-profits, and children’s organization entries are FREE! 

To enter a float, vehicle, or walking group (as a non-sponsor), click here:

COMMERCIAL ENTRIES 

All commercial entries (without sponsorship) are assessed the low fee of $75. To enter a commercial float as a non-sponsor, use the ENTER PARADE link above to register.

For an additional $75, sign up as a sponsor instead, and your business name and/or logo will be listed as a sponsor on our website and Facebook page (nearly 4,000 fans!)

We prefer online submissions, but if you prefer paper, here ya’ go:
