How to use this Mardi Gras Guide
Check the parade schedule to identify the dates and times of the parades, and the day’s transit detours. Use the detour pattern (Uptown, Endymion, etc.) for each parade in the parade table to determine where to board your bus or streetcar. During parades, plan more time for your trip.
