The title float, the 6th of the procession, proclaims "La Belle Époque." This gilded, permanent float is right at home with the Parisian theme this year. #rex2025

Our "La Belle Époque" theme has its own bead that you can catch from any of the floats. #rex2025

Definitely keep a look out for our beautiful, new tote bag. It's sturdy and perfect to carry around anything. #rex2025 #GreenMardiGras

Our 10th float depicts “The Streetcar Named Desire,” made famous by the playwright Tennessee Williams. Self-powered, it is the only Rex float not pulled by a tractor. #rex2025

We're excited to share our beautiful floats. They will be shimmering down the avenues starting at 10:30am on Mardi Gras morning. #rex2025

We are proud to announce Rex 2025, Edward Howell Crosby and Queen of Carnival Tatum Lady Reiss. Hail Rex! #rex2025 buff.ly/yLtIQp3

As float 28, the Royal Barge is the last remnant of the Royal Navy, which is reminiscent of a grand Viking ship. This year it has been rechristened "La Badine", the vessel commanded by French explorers and brothers Iberville and Bienville. #rex2025

Joining Rex 2025 Edward Howell Crosby and Queen of Carnival Tatum Lady Reiss are their royal Maids, Dukes, and Pages. Hail Rex! #rex2025

Always at the end of the parade, His Majesty’s Royal Calliope provides a lively and traditional musical counterpoint and conclusion to the brilliant array of bands in the Rex Procession. #rex2025

We are planning to start at 9:30am tomorrow morning. The shortened route will turn left on Jackson Ave and finish on Claiborne Ave due to weather concerns. In the interest of the safety of band members, there will be no bands in this year’s Rex Parade. #rex2025

UPDATED ROUTE: We will continue down St. Charles Ave until Calliope St. where the parade will end. Hail Rex! #rex2025

Rex and the Queen of Carnival started the day with the Royal Run. Naturally, the Queen won the race. Hail Rex! #rex2025
