The parade remained on its original route until 1976, when it was shifted to its now traditional Mid-City route, rolling from Orleans Avenue to North Carrollton Avenue to Canal Street and into the Mercedes Benz Superdome. The 2003 parade was forced to the Uptown route along St. Charles Avenue by construction of the Canal Streetcar Line, a circumstance which repeated in 2006 and 2007 due to a lack of manpower within the NOPD in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Endymion returned to Mid-City in 2008 and is the only remaining parade in the New Orleans city limits which does not use the Uptown route.The Krewe of Endymion is one of only three Super Krewes (using floats and celebrity Grand Marshals), and is the largest of the parades participating in the New Orleans Mardi Gras. Many people begin saving their viewing spots for this parade several days before the parade actually rolls, although spot-saving is widely frowned upon and is discouraged. It was founded in 1966 and named after Endymion {en-dim'-ee-uhn}, from Greek mythology.OFFICIAL WEBSITE FOR KREWE OF ENDYMION<a href="https://endymion.org/parade/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://endymion.org/parade/</a>What's Included in your ticketGeneral TicketOpen Bar - Top Shelf LiquorNon-Alcoholic BeveragesFood from 2pm to 8pm (Food will include some Louisiana Favorites)Optimal viewing of ParadePrivate restrooms*VIP Ticket*All the above perksSouviner T-ShirtSouviner Parade CupFAQDo I need a ticket to participate?
