Lundi Gras — Fat Monday

Zulu Lundi Gras Festival
Since 1993, the Zulu Lundi Gras Festival has attracted thousands of revelers to Woldenberg Park, along the Mississippi River in New Orleans' French Quarter.

This fun exciting day includes live entertainment by some of the city's (and the world's) best musicians performing on three stages (including a kids' stage). Feast on an array of fabulous Cajun food and New Orleans delicacies.

Join in a second line as the Zulu Mardi Gras Carnival Characters parade every hour through the thousands of costumed revelers. Don't miss the arrival of the Zulu King by U.S. Coast Guard Cutter along with his entourage.

Zulu Parade
— 100th Anniversary
February 2009 marked the 100th Anniversary of the Zulu Parade (which is run by the city's largest African-American krewe).
