Where to Stay for Mardi Gras 2027 in New Orleans

A Block from the St. Charles Parade Route

When
Fat Tuesday is Tuesday, February 9, 2027. Parade season builds through late January, with the biggest parades in the final two weekends.
From the houses
One block from St. Charles Avenue, where the major Uptown parades roll
Minimum stay
Set per night on our live calendar. Big event weekends usually require more nights; checking your dates shows the exact rule.

Most visitors spend Mardi Gras fighting for a curb spot and a bathroom. Our guests walk one block to St. Charles Avenue, watch the parades, and walk back to a private courtyard, a stocked kitchen and a bed. That is the whole trick, and it is why these houses book up first.

Why stay with us for Mardi Gras

  • A one-block walk to the St. Charles route, which carries the big Uptown parades, including Muses, Bacchus, Orpheus and Rex on Mardi Gras morning.
  • Real bathrooms, a kitchen and a courtyard to come back to between parades. On parade days, that is the luxury.
  • Room for the whole crew: 16 to 20 per house, or 34 with Lyra and Luna together behind one gate.
  • Lyra and Luna rent together as The Muses, a nod to the Krewe of Muses, which traditionally rolls down St. Charles the Thursday before Mardi Gras.

Insider tips

  • Park before the parades start. Once St. Charles closes, cars cannot cross it, and our street sits on the river side of the route.
  • Bring a ladder seat for kids and a wagon for the cooler. Spots near the houses fill early on the big nights.
  • Muses riders hand out decorated shoes. They are the most coveted throw of the season.
  • Book early. Mardi Gras weekend is the first thing to go on our calendar every year.
