If you want to see Lake Charles Mardi Gras, look no further than the Mardi Gras Merchants’ Parade. As one of the crown jewels of the Mardi Gras of Southwest Louisiana (MGSWLA) season, this event is a neon-lit, music-filled thank you note to the community.
The Merchants’ Parade is all about local flavor. It’s the night where the local shops, companies, boutiques, and service providers trade their storefronts for floats and throwing some of the best beads in the city.
Whether you’re a lifelong resident or a visitor looking for an authentic Louisiana experience, the Merchants’ Parade is where memories are made. Grab your purple, green, and gold, and we’ll see you on Ryan Street!
