Where can I see the floats after the night parade?

After the night parade, you can see the splendid floats close up. They will be on display at The Urban Council Centenary Garden, Tsim Sha Tsui from 11 to 25 February. Time: 8 - 9:45pm (Street performances will warm up the parade route from 6pm onwards)

What are the most popular Mardi Gras parades?

The most historic parades include Proteus on Lundi Gras, and Rex and Zulu on Fat Tuesday. The largest parades are Endymion on the Saturday before Mardi Gras and Bacchus on the Sunday before Mardi Gras. Other fan favorites include Muses (an all-female krewe) on the Thursday before and Tucks, which rolls during the day on the Saturday before.

Why do float riders wear masks during Mardi Gras?

Masking is a tradition during Mardi Gras. Masks were first worn to escape society and class constraints. Today, float-riders are required to wear masks by law to keep in tradition and mystery of who is in which krewe. Float-riders often wear a costume as well that matches their float’s theme.
