Toast to Mardi Gras

NEW ORLEANS – It’s tradition.

It’s a toast.


The Krewe of Iris raises a glass to the Krewe of Hermes.

In the French Quarter, the two Krewes toasted to a great weekend of Mardi Gras.

The Krewe of Iris is New Orleans’ oldest all-female krewe.

This year, almost 3,500 members.

The corner of Royal and St. Louis filled with Mardi Gras fans who also raised a glass to Carnival 2020.

You can watch the Krewe of Iris parade Saturday morning at 11 am.

This year’s theme is “Iris Sees 20/20”
