Costume Contest Judging Starts at 12:30 with winners announced at 1pm!
The Parade begins our march through the Strand at 1:30pm.
Stemming from a desire for locals and their pets to have a way to be involved in the Mardi Gras! Galveston festivities, The Galveston Island Humane Society created the Krewe of Barkus and Meoux Parade in 1998, and this crowd-pleasing event has been going strong ever since!
The festivities will kick off with our Costume Contest Judging will start at 12:30 at Pier 21. The winners will get to participate as one of the lead elements in the parade as well as receiving their award. Make sure to come dressed to impress!
Costume Contest Categories are:
1. Best Mardi Gras-themed Pet Costume
2. Best group pet costumes
3. Best decorated mode of transportation
4. Most original pet costumes
5. Best Pet/person matching costume
6. Judge’s special award
Leading the parade each year is the “Elite Pet Owner”- a title awarded at the annual, Paws Gala, which is held each September. This year, the winner was Natalie "Fox" Maisel and her pet Tulip LaRue.
The Krewe also is continuing the Cat’s Eye View Balcony Party, which grows bigger and better each year.
Sponsors, walkers, and donors will all help us produce a successful event that will help so many animals.
Proceeds from this walk will support our community programs including; emergency care, spay/neuter assistance, and vaccination and microchip clinics.
Registration is "per pet" and they may bring their favorite people! Event shirts are not guaranteed for late or on site registrations.
Rabies vaccines are required for all cats and dogs. Please bring proof
