Mystik Krewe de la Rue Royale Revelers Twelfth Night Party

The party returns to the Mardi Gras Museum of Costumes and Culture! This amazing museum features costumes from Carnival Ball Royalty, Mardi Gras Indians, Cajun Mardi Gras, Carnival in Brazil, Gay Carnival Krewes, Social Aid and Pleasure Clubs, Walking Clubs and much more. In addition, there is also the “Costume Closet,” where you can dress up in authentic Mardi Gras gear from the collection and take photos with your friends as Mardi Gras Kings and Queens on actual Mardi Gras thrones!

The doors open at 7:00pm. Procession of previous Grand Revelers and Revelation of the new Grand Reveler begins at 7:30pm—ish, to be followed by the Meeting of the Courts of the Krewe de la Rue Royale Revelers and the Krewe of Queenateenas. You don’t want to miss the new Grand Reveler and her lieutenants toast and be toasted by the incoming and outgoing King Cake Queens.

$40 gets you admission to the party (includes food, an open bar, and the museum), as well as a year-long membership in the Krewe de la Rue Royale Revelers. Admission also includes a custom-made, commemorative pin.

Admission pins will be available next week at 638 St. Peter Street and on Eventbrite. Admission at the door is $45. You can bring your Eventbrite receipt to 638 St. Peter to get your pin ahead of time (recommended) or you can pick it up at the door.

As usual, the party will feature lots of booze, delicious food, scantily clad eye candy, and great people. A grand, gay time will be had by all so join us as we kick off Carnival Season!
