Happy Carnival!
Parade with us this Saturday!
Two spots left!
Parade with the Krewe of Kolossos!
Get ready to experience Mardi Gras like never before with the Krewe of Kolossos! The human-powered, eco-conscious, parading phenomenon! Our whimsical, tricycle-powered bike zoo turns salvaged materials into majestic, one-of-a-kind creations—from Louisiana’s iconic white alligator to a playful triceratops. Each art piece began as a tricycle salvaged after Hurricane Katrina, transforming trash into treasure!
🎭 Krewe of Mad Hatters (Family Gras, Metairie)
Saturday, February 22, 5 PM
Featuring an Alice in Wonderland collection!
Want to Ride?
We’re inviting a limited number of riders to join the fun for just $300 for the Mad Hatters.

A majestic animal trike to ride
A custom upcycled costume (vest + marching band hat)
Just wear black, white, and/or red—we’ll do the rest!
What to Expect:
