Annual Sunset Kidz Wagon Parade
The Sunset Mardi Gras Association is hosting the Sunset Kidz Wagon Parade on January 28th. This family-friendly Mardi Gras event is not your typical parade. No animals or motorized vehicles are allowed. Only wagons, bicycles, and wheelchairs for those in need, ALL decorated for Mardi Gras or this year’s theme “The Enchanted Forest”.
Wagons will line up at 11am, but the parade starts at noon. Beginning at the Sunset Community Center on 108 Leo Richard Lane, the parade turns right on Napoleon Avenue, then turns left on Landry, another left on Commercial Street, then left on Castille, then proceeding right on Napoleon Avenue. From there we will turn left on Budd St, left on Boudreaux ending at the Sunset Community Center.
You’ll find music and food behind the Sunset Community Center. Begnauds DJ Service will be there from 10am-1pm. Mais Oui will be playing live from 1pm-4pm with vendors like CJ’s Snowballs, Jumping Jax Jumps, and DOC Popcorn for you and the family to enjoy.
This is a free event that typically takes place the third Sunday before Mardi Gras. Visit Facebook.com/sunsetmardigras or send an email to sunsetmardigras@yahoo.com for more information.
