Southern Decadence is Coming Soon!

GET READY! Southern Decadence will be here soon!!!

Hello, all you beautiful, bold, and ready-to-party people! It’s your favorite enabler of good times, Karen Brem, the Marketing Director of the one, the only, Historic Mardi Gras Inn. And honey, I’m here to spill the tea on all the LGBTQ events that are popping up like glitter bombs across our beloved neighborhood, just a stiletto throw away from the flaming hot French Quarter.

First things first, let’s talk about our cozy inn, the Historic Mardi Gras Inn, perfectly perched at the edge of the French Quarter’s fabulous fanfare. We are LGBTQ owned and operated, darlings, with a kaleidoscope of a staff that’s as diverse as our guests. We promise nothing but clean, affordable places to crash after your wild nights, and a warm, welcoming team that lives to make your stay delightful. But let me tell you, rooms are selling like hotcakes dipped in honey—so if you haven’t booked your spot, you might as well start practicing the fine art of cuddling with strangers! For more information on accommodations please call us directly at (504)949-5815 or 1(800)209-9408 OR email us at historicmardigrasinn.com. 

Now, let’s dive into the heart of the matter—those saucy, sassy LGBTQ events leading up to the extravaganza of the year, Southern Decadence. This year, the streets of New Orleans will be dripping with more LGBTQ spirit than a drag queen’s mascara after a breakup.

Upcoming Events Not to Miss:

Glitter and Be Gay at Café Lafitte in Exile

Every Thursday, get your glitter on at the oldest gay bar in the country. It’s trivia night, but make it fashionable! Prizes for winners and those who just come to slay.

Diva Royale at Oz New Orleans

Dust off your highest heels for Friday nights at Oz, where the divas descend in all their lip-syncing, death-dropping glory. It’s a drag showdown where the cocktails are as stiff as the competition.

Bourbon Boylesque at Bourbon Pub

Tuesdays are for tantalizing treats, and there’s nothing more delicious than Bourbon Boylesque. It’s an eye-candy extravaganza where the boys are as sweet as the bourbon.

The Ruby Slipper Revue at The Phoenix

Only a few blocks from our doorstep, The Phoenix rises every Wednesday with the Ruby Slipper Revue. Drag queens, kings, and in-betweens take the stage in a spectacle of sparkle and sass.

Queer Karaoke at Good Friends Bar

Sundays should be sinful, so why not sing your heart out at Queer Karaoke? It’s the perfect place to belt, bellow, and maybe find a new bedfellow.

Leather and Lace at Rawhide 2010

Get your gear on for Leather and Lace Saturdays. It’s where leather lovers unite under the sultry glow of neon lights. Remember, what happens at Rawhide, stays at Rawhide.

And then, there’s Southern Decadence!

Labor Day weekend marks the pinnacle of our queer calendar. Southern Decadence is where all our parties, all our events, and all our shenanigans crescendo into six days of unadulterated joy. Expect costumes that defy gravity, dances that challenge anatomy, and a parade of pride that paints the town every shade under the sun.

So, my dear revelers, if you’re planning to join the festivities, remember—the Historic Mardi Gras Inn is your sanctuary amidst the chaos. We’re the perfect place to powder your nose (or whatever else needs touching up) between events. But don’t wait, sweeties, because like the finest sequins on a drag queen’s gown, our rooms are catching everyone’s eye—and they’re booking fast!

Come for the parties, stay for the pampering. Book yesterday, and let’s make this Southern Decadence one for the history books!

See you at the inn, where every guest leaves a legend.
