Parade Sponsorship

The Mysti Krewe of Nimbus, Portland’s authentic Mardi Gras krewe, creates joy and merriment by parading with your support and sponsorship contributions. We look forward to partnering with you this year to help cover the cost of bands, beads, throws, permits and the marketing of the parade.

The parade steps off at 7:00 p.m. on February 13, 2024. It travels the length of Mississippi Avenue, from Alberta Street to Fremont St.. All kinds of people come out for the parade, even in cold weather. Live music draws crowds indoors before and after the parade, and even the weekend before!
