2012 New Orleans Krewes & Mardi Gras Calendar
New Orleans krewes are some of the most dedicated and well-funded Mardi Gras parading and social organizations out there. As a result their floats and balls are sometimes bigger and a bit more impressive than in other places. But we’d expect nothing less from the city whose reputation rests, to a great degree, on this one big party every year.
