🎩✨ 2027 THEME REVEAL ✨🎩

The Magical Krewe of MadHatters is proud to announce the official theme for our 2027 Parade…

📖🌟 “MadHatters Reads Fairy Tales” 🌟📖

For the very first time, the Krewe will ride under a unified theme—bringing a fresh layer of storytelling and imagination to our signature spectacle! 

While our beloved Alice in Wonderland floats return—keeping the MadHatters magic you know and love—this year introduces an exciting new twist. We’re turning the page beyond Wonderland and diving into a collection of classic and curious fairy tales, each reimagined with our signature flair.

Look for enchanting float titles like:
🐝 The Queen Bee
🧺 Little Red Riding Hood
🎣 The Fisherman and His Wife
🧵 Rumpelstiltskin
🐇 The Hare’s Bride
🃏 Pack of Ragamuffins

Expect a parade filled with whimsical characters, vibrant costumes, and imaginative scenes that bring these timeless tales to life like never before.

This is more than a parade—it's a storybook adventure rolling through the streets, and you’re invited to be part of the magic.

More details coming soon—stay tuned!
