The Bayou Mardi Gras Parade in downtown New Iberia has been rescheduled because of weather.
The parade was originally scheduled for Friday evening and is rescheduled for 3 p.m. Sunday, according to a Facebook post by The Bayou Mardi Gras Association.
“After consulting with meteorologists from the National Weather Service, we have decided to postpone the parade due to the potential for rain and thunderstorms Friday evening,” the post reads. “The safety of participants and all attendees remain the focus of our event. Expect the same great parade, now on Sunday at 3PM,” read the post.
