For some weeks inside the early a part of every 12 months, dozens of brightly festooned, themed Mardi Gras floats sporting krewe royalty, celebrities, and masked participants lead marching bands and riders on horseback, flambeaux companies and others thru the streets of recent Orleans. They bestow beads, doubloons, and different prized trinkets to tens of millions of revelers witnessing "the finest show on the earth."
Carnival season formally begins January 6 every year and keeps through fat Tuesday, which falls at the day earlier than Ash Wednesday. This year’s parades will take location between January fifth and February thirteenth, 2017.
