Mardi Gras FYI

Box of Wine before Bacchus

Look for the smaller Box of Wine walking procession before Bacchus on the Sunday before Mardi Gras. The organizer describes walking part of the St. Charles parade route and sharing boxed wine with willing spectators. Drinking is optional. The organizer keeps the exact start and route private until parade morning.

Plan your outing

  • Plan around the Sunday before Mardi Gras and the Bacchus schedule.
