Mardi Gras Parade

The Lighthouse Krewe Mardi Gras Parade is a cherished tradition on the Bolivar Peninsula, held every year on the Saturday before Mardi Gras. Since its humble beginnings in the early 1990s, the parade has grown into one of the peninsula’s most popular and exciting events. Locals and visitors alike flock to Crystal Beach to enjoy the festive atmosphere, colorful floats, and a shower of beads and goodies.

Whether you’re decorating a float, vehicle, golf cart, or simply lining up along the parade route on Highway 87, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. The parade embodies the vibrant spirit of Mardi Gras, featuring music, dancing, and a chance to connect with the community. It’s a celebration not to be missed, perfect for families, groups, and anyone looking to experience the unique charm of Crystal Beach.

Mark your calendar, grab your beads, and join the fun! Watch the Lighthouse Krewe’s Facebook page for more information on the Parade.
