Don your finest purple, green and gold and launch Carnival season at HNOC with our annual King Cake Kickoff Friday, Jan. 9 at 1:30 p.m., featuring live New Orleans jazz, the Merry Antoinettes and free samples of king cakes from bakers across the city!
King cakes will be available for purchase at the Shop. Every Wednesday and Saturday at 2 p.m. during Carnival, experience our exciting Mardi Gras talk, “Mardi Gras Throws: It’s The Gettin’ Not The Havin’!”, to explore the wonderful world of Carnival throws – and their unintended consequences.
Free admission to both events; registration not required.
