This theme nods to that vibrant heritage, blending the city’s love of pageantry, color, and community. Just like the birds that fill the city’s skies and swamps—herons, pelicans, and parrots—each guest brings their own color and flair, but together you create one dazzling parade.Dress to ImpressChannel the wild, colorful spirit of Mardi Gras by arriving in your brightest purple, green, and gold—or by taking flight with a Birds of a Feather–themed costume. Whether you’re bringing the marshlands to life as a graceful egret, rocking radiant peacock plumes, or showing off a playful parrot or flamingo look, creativity is highly encouraged. From earthy bayou tones to bold carnival feathers, come dressed to dazzle and join the flock!Dauphine's will provide plenty of beads and favors - but don't be afraid to showoff your own collection!PoliciesAll tickets prices are inclusive of a service charge for Dauphine's staff, but additional tips are always appreciated.Mardi Gras at Dauphine's is strictly 21+.
