Krewe of Cleopatra
The female-led Krewe of Cleopatra is slated to roll on Friday, February 6, 2026.
The krewe honoring Cleopatra, the queen who ruled over the Ptolemaic dynasty in Egypt, is back celebrating both the icon and its love for Carnival season. For over 50 years, this krewe has paraded through the streets of Greater New Orleans, promoting sisterhood, love of Mardi Gras, femininity, and the queen herself. The fun is sure to be epic as the organization is celebrating its 53rd anniversary.
Krewe of Cleopatra Parade
The parade features a variety of floats, stunning looks, and boatloads of fun. With more than 3200 riders, the organization looks to stand out this Mardi Gras with spirit and flair.
This stroll in the Big Easy will see 20 themed floats and five signature floats, including Cleopatra's Royal Barge, unique throws, and more. The fun kicks off at 6:30 p.m., starting at the intersection of Napoleon Avenue and Tchoupitoulas Street.
Rendezvous Ball
While the big parade is a few months away, there is still fun to be had at the Rendezvous Ball. The ball fosters a night filled with elegant dress, food, drinks, and great vibes.
Members and guests get to mingle, take photos, and even see the reigning Queen Cleopatra. The spectacle will be held at Caesars Superdome on Friday, December 5; to attend, guests and krewe members must purchase a ticket.
