Email me when the 2027 routes are out
One email the day the City publishes the new routes, then a heads-up the evening before each parade day through Mardi Gras.
No account. One tap to stop.
From the City of New Orleans Mardi Gras Routes data (data.nola.gov), checked every 3 hours. Not checked: where the parade is right now, weather reschedules announced after our last check, NOPD barricades and side-street closures, and temporary signs on the block.
