Bacchus makes its mark on Mardi Gras

For more than 50 years, the Krewe of Bacchus has made its definitive mark on Mardi Gras. This year’s parade theme, “Starring Louisiana,” will bring Hollywood South alive, as Bacchus honors some of the movies and TV shows filmed or set in Louisiana over the years.

Some of the amazing Kern Studios floats include “A Streetcar Named Desire,” “American Horror Story,” “Easy Rider,” “Interview with the Vampire,” “King Creole” and “The Princess and the Frog.”

Watch exclusive coverage of the Bacchus parade and rendezvous from the Morial Convention Center on Sunday, March 3, at 10 p.m. on WWL-TV.
