New Orleans is a captivating city with an undeniable allure. It is rich in history and culture, renowned for its culinary and musical achievements, revered for its distinctive architecture and celebrated for its revelry.
And, speaking of revelry, New Orleans is known for its Mardi Gras celebration – with numerous parades throughout the streets of the city! 
Because New Orleanians countdown to Carnival all year, it’s easy to forget that for convention attendees, Mardi Gras merriment can start the minute they arrive in the Crescent City. At ACCENT, we can create a unique, one of a kind experience to kick off a meeting with a customized Second Line parade or an authentic Mardi Gras float parade through the streets of New Orleans. Elements of our parade pageantry can include high school marching bands, brass bands, stilt walkers and colorful, costumed revelers. Mini floats are available for indoor parades and larger floats for street parades where conference attendees engage with New Orleanians by tossing beads to the crowds on the street. Mardi Gras beads and “Go-cups” can be customized with the company’s logos, as well.
