Portland Mardi Gras Parade

Each year the Krewe hosts a Mardi Gras parade for everyone on Mississippi Avenue, just north of Legacy Emanuel Hospital. This free family friendly event invites all to dress up and come dance in the streets! Krewe members decorate signature mini-umbrella ‘throws’ to hand out to lucky participants

Traditionally, the parade starts up at Victoria Bar, and proceeds down Mississippi Avenue to Cook St near Ecliptic Brewing. Many venues along the way will have food and drink specials all day and after the parade

Before the parade, there’s the Kids’ costume contest at Luke’s Frame Shop. The contest ends as the parade passes by, so all can join in!
