👑 All Hail Poseidon! 👑


An Evening of Majesty, Music & a Rising Tide…

The Krewe of Poseidon invites you to an unforgettable night of pageantry and celebration as we gather at the Castine Center on July 25, 2026,

to crown our King and Queen XII.

As the tides turn and a new royal chapter begins, we will honor tradition, celebrate our growing krewe, and officially launch another extraordinary Mardi Gras season in true Poseidon style.

Guests will enjoy a delicious dinner followed by an evening of live entertainment as Paper Chase, decked out in hot pink, takes the stage and keeps the ballroom energized all night long.

This is more than a coronation, it is the moment the trident passes and a new reign begins.

Save the date.
Secure your seat.
Join us as we crown King and Queen XII.

🎭 The World is Your Oyster Parade 🎭
Saturday, January 31, 2026 | 6:00 PM
Slidell’s Traditional Parade Route

On a very cold January night, the Krewe of Poseidon rolled strong and unstoppable as we proudly presented our 2026 parade theme: The World Is Our Oyster!

Despite the chill in the air, the streets of Slidell were filled with warmth, excitement, and Poseidon pride. Dazzling floats, incredible marching groups, and costumed riders brought the spirit of the sea to life along the traditional parade route.

King & Queen XI, Cliff and Jammie Laigast, reigned over the evening with elegance and joy, leading a parade that proved nothing could hold us back.

It was Mardi Gras through the eyes of the god of the sea; bold, beautiful, and brimming with wonder. The cold may have tried to slow us down, but Poseidon was not stopped.
