Join us in the 2025 Mardi Gras Float Parade in New Orleans! Fantesca has partnered with the Krewe of Mid-City to offer a limited number of float rider positions exclusively to friends and family of Fantesca. Riders will experience the thrill of throwing beads to hundreds of thousands of parade viewers on one of the most exciting days of Mardi Gras weekend.

Fantesca Proprietors Susan & Duane Hoff, who served as Queen and King of the Krewe of Mid-City in 2017, have worked closely with the Krewe to provide this exclusive experience. It’s an opportunity to be part of one of the most exciting events imaginable.

About the Krewe of Mid-City:
The Krewe of Mid-City is the fifth oldest continuously parading organization of the New Orleans Mardi Gras season.
