Best Place to Watch Endymion? (1 Viewer)

[DerrickB]

Making my plans now to get out there. Anything not around City Park would be great.

Any tips would be appreciated. Also, I need parking suggestions, I haven't been to that parade in a long long time.

Well there goes my suggestion
last few times I went we caught it at the Delgado staging area
not too too crowded and able to slip away easy enough

Where are we allowed to park at around Delgado?

I would usually find something around the Park Place streets

You can pay a couple bucks to park in Delagdo, that's what I do every year.

I think it's $25 or $30. They fill up by about 2:30 (latest).

Also, is there a spot where can watch Tucks, Iris, and Endymion all in one spot? That would be great.

You would have to be downtown.

Is it that much now? I was thinking $20, but I don't really pay attention since we always go there.

The only place they all 3 pass would be a small stretch of Canal downtown or St Charles in the CBD, but that would be many many hours apart.

We used to go on Canal by the church a couple of blocks downtown of Mandina's. I think it's the Bethany Church? But they would have porto-lets in the parking lot an you could get a wristband with a church donation.

Not sure if they still do that.

Canal as a whole is generally better now than it used to be, but the section closest to Carrollton is also a good choice if you get there early enough. I still would tend to not go to the sections closer to downtown unless you are actually downtown... if that makes sense.

I could be wrong.

When I 1st moved back to NO I lived 3 houses off of Orleans but that was when Carrollton was all dug up and Endymion was rerouted

When my first child was born we lived about 6 blocks off Orleans and I was able to walk his one month old self up to his first parade

That’s probably enough ‘guido’s proximity to Endymion ‘ news for the moment

True dat. We always went between Carrollton and Jeff Davis.
