IT’S CARINVAL SEASON Y’ALL!!!

By Karen Brem, Marketing Director, Historic Mardi Gras Inn
Alright, party people, let’s cut to the chase: Mardi Gras isn’t just a parade—it’s four full nights of unadulterated chaos, adult fun, and glitter-covered debauchery, and it happens the two weekends right before Fat Tuesday. 🥳✨
If you’re serious about seeing it all, you need a home base that’s affordable, welcoming, and perfectly located. That’s where the Historic Mardi Gras Inn comes in—an LGBTQ+-owned and operated gem just one block off the French Quarter, with a streetcar a two-minute walk away to whisk you anywhere the city wants to show you its magic. 🏨💖
Why You Need a 4-Night Stay
- Thursday Night: The chaos kicks off. Floats roll, bands blare, and beads fly like tiny treasures. You’ll want a safe, comfy place nearby to collapse afterward—our rooms are perfect for that. 😴✨
- Friday Night: Parade mania continues, and the French Quarter comes alive with cocktails, music, and costumes that might make your jaw drop (and your inhibitions too). 🍸💃
- Saturday Night: Adult-themed mayhem in full swing. Jazz, bars, secret parties—you name it, anything goes. You’ll want to come home to somewhere welcoming, warm, and judgment-free… yep, that’s us. ❤️
- Sunday Night: The grand finale before Fat Tuesday. Float-catching, cocktail-sipping, glitter-everywhere action that will make you feel like a true Mardi Gras legend. 🥂🎭
Location, Location, Location!
Seriously, you can’t beat our location: a block from Bourbon Street and a two-minute walk to the streetcar that takes you anywhere in New Orleans. Want Uptown parades? Check.
