COMING SOON!!!
Hey babes,
Karen Brem here—your sass-loving, confetti-throwing, always-party-prepping Marketing Director at the fabulously fresh and newly glow’d up Historic Mardi Gras Inn! And guess what’s coming straight through our own neighborhood of Marigny with all the sparkle, sass, and sexy strut we can handle? That’s right—New Orleans Pride Parade 2025 is marching back into town, and honey, she’s bringing the full rainbow fantasy!
This year’s Pride Parade is serving looks, love, and liberation on Saturday, June 14, 2025, and baby, the route literally sashays through our own neighborhood. No rideshare drama, no long hikes in heels—just step out our charming lil’ inn’s front door and boom! You’re in it. Parade glam, music thumpin’, glitter raining from the skies… it’s a gay ol’ time in the best way possible.
🌈 Official Pride Parade Details You Need to Know:
- Date: Saturday, June 14, 2025
- Start Time: 6:00 PM
- Lineup Begins: 4:00 PM at Armstrong Park
- Route: From Armstrong Park, down Rampart, over to Royal, and right into the heart of our beloved Marigny—just a short, fabulous strut from our inn!
- After-Party: Oh, you know it! DJs, drag queens, drink specials, and dancing ‘til your glitter wears off at bars all throughout the Quarter and Marigny.
But listen, sugar—why just do one night when you can make a full Pride Weekend (Thursday to Sunday, or longer, we won’t judge) out of it?
💃 All the Tea on the 4-Day Pride Fest 2025 Lineup:
- Thursday, June 12:
Pride Kick-Off Party at Oz New Orleans – Drag shows, drink specials, and the fiercest queens in the South. - Friday, June 13:
Glitter & Glow Neon Dance Night at The Phoenix Bar – You already know it’s just a block away from us. Lace up those boots and let your inner disco ball shine! - Saturday, June 14:
THE Parade (obvi), followed by wild after-parties at The AllWays Lounge, Good Friends Bar, and everywhere in between. - Sunday, June 15:
Recovery Tea Dance at The Bourbon Pub – Mimosas, mood lighting, and maybe a little making out on the balcony (hey, Pride is about love, right?).
And darling, don’t forget that our charming inn is now proudly LGBTQ+ owned and operated, and she’s just gotten a fierce head-to-toe glow-up! Think polished rooms, upgraded vibes, and a warm, welcoming staff that’s ready to make your stay as fabulous as your outfit lineup.
Why Stay With Us? Oh Honey, Let Me Count the Ways:
- We’re just one block from the French Quarter, so when you’re done marching, mingling, or making some sweet queer history, you can roll home without losing a sequin.
- Our inn is a few glittery steps from a streetcar stop, so getting to Armstrong Park (where the parade kicks off and lands) is easy peasy, even in platforms.
- And we make no promises except this: clean, affordable accommodations and a warm, welcoming staff who will make you feel like the royalty you are, no matter your pronouns or party stamina.
So if you’re planning to hit New Orleans Pride Parade 2025, book early and book long. Trust me, you’re gonna want the extra nights to explore all the naughty, noisy, neon-drenched nightlife that the French Quarter dishes up on a silver (or maybe leather) platter.

We’ll be the place you stumble back to with a smile on your face, a Pride flag in your hand, and maybe someone cute on your arm (no judgment—we encourage it).

And we’re right in the middle of the rainbow.
