| Parade City: | New Orleans (Orleans Parish) Map It |
| Parade Date: | January 19, 2008 |
| Description: | Time is 7:00 pm. The 2008 Parade Date this year is on Saturday, January 19, 2008 and the Krewe will be rolling and stumbling through the Marigny Triangle and the Lower French Quarter. The official parade route still needs a review by the homeland security and the city of New Orleans Pot hole Killer before we can show it. More news on the Party later. But its gonna be different than what weve done the past 8-9 years.
This years theme is the Magical Misery Tour. The King is Ronald W. Lewis of the Lower Ninth Ward in New Orleans. Besides bringing his own magic to that area, his main creds are: Director, House of Dance & Feathers President, Big 9 Social Aid & Pleasure Club
The Krewe du Vieux is a non-profit organization dedicated to the historical and traditional concept of a Mardi Gras parade as a venue for individual creative expression and satirical comment. It is unique among all Mardi Gras parades in the city because it alone carries on the old traditions of Carnival celebrations, using decorated, hand or mule-drawn floats with satirical themes, accompanied by costumed revelers dancing in the streets to the sounds of jazzy street musicians. We believe in exposing the world to the true nature of Mardi Gras - and in exposing ourselves to the world. |
