Description


AS-A002: KREWE OF ORPHEUS

This package includes two rides in the 2013 Krewe of Orpheus 20th Anniversary Parade which included space for two on a float, costumes, a luncheon before the parade and entrance for two riders to the Orpheuscapade ball.Experience a side of Mardi Gras seldom seen by New Orleanians or visitors, and join us for the Orpheuscapade!

This black tie event begins with live music and dancing until the magic moment when the gigantic floats arrive. As the entire parade rolls through the Convention Center, guests are showered with beads, doubloons, and other throws that fly fast and furious from the magnificent floats. Once the floats are inside, the music resumes, and dancing and merriment reign.

Since 1993, the Krewe of Orpheus has mesmerized the crowds who jam the streets of New Orleans awaiting its arrival. Orpheus has consistently stunned the revelers on Lundi Gras, the night before Mardi Gras, and has exploded as the largest new Krewe in the past 30 years. Since that first ride, Orpheus has been the most eagerly anticipated Mardi Gras parade of the season.

Value: $2,200
