Join us Sunday, Valentine’s Day for the Mystic Krewe of Mardi Paws annual parade. The parade theme will be “Mardi Gras 2016: Love is in the Hair.” As usual, doggies are expected to wag tails and dispense kisses while their owners toss Mardi Gras trinkets, including signature dog-themed throws, beads, plush toys, and doubloons. As usual, the foot-and-paw march along the Mandeville Lakefront will happen several days after the close of the “official” Mardi Gras season.

Newlywed actors Ian Somerhalder (“Vampire Diaries”) and Nikki Reed (“Twilight”) have been announced as this year’s Celebrity Grand Monarchs of Mandeville’s Mardi Paws.
