A Front Row Seat to Mardi Gras Festivities

Mardi Gras is the greatest free show on Earth, but living on a parade route (or within a few blocks) gives you an incredible front row seat to the festivities -- offering a unique experience you won’t find any where else in the city. 

Think about it -- there’s no need to plan how you’ll get to your viewing spot when Mardi Gras parades roll, or where you’ll go to the bathroom, or even what you’ll need to bring to eat and drink. Because all you have to do is casually stroll to your own doorstep. Sounds nice, huh?

If you’re a diehard Mardi Gras fan looking for that perfect spot to call your own, check out these listings.

Walkable from the start of Muses, Hermes, Krewe d’Etat, Morpheus, and more, this listing and location is a gem.

The float riders are excited, the crowd is family-friendly, and you don’t have to stay up late to see the whole show!

It just doesn’t get any better! This beautiful condo is literally at the start of the parade route for the majority of Uptown parades. And with its amazing balcony, you’ll be eye level, havin’ a great time, and catching all the best throws!

These two cute duplexes are just 4 blocks on the lake side of St. Charles Avenue, which means they’re close enough to walk to the Uptown parades, but far enough to be out of the fray. And sometimes that’s the best way to do Mardi Gras. Also, these properties are on the ‘outside’ of the Uptown parade route that goes from Tchoupitoulas to Napoleon to St. Charles Avenue – which means you can easily get to and from your home in the middle of Mardi Gras parades.
