Mardi Gras World (Tour)

Mardi Gras World (Logo)We are pleased to announce that the fine folks at Blaine Kern’s “Mardi Gras World” have agreed to give a discounted tour to NOLA Pyrate Week participants! This is a unique opportunity to see the awesome new warehouse that houses the creations of one of New Orleans most famous families.

Since 1947, Blaine Kern Studios has been as much a part of Carnival as the parades New Orleans loves. In fact, they create most of those parades, from concept through completion. They are the world’s leading makers of floats, sculpture and props.
