Here are all the 2026 spring parades in New Orleans, from second lines to St. Paddy’s to Easter

New Orleans must be the world capital of parades. After Mardi Gras, the city barely has a chance to catch its breath before springtime processions hit the streets. Here’s a list of all the major parades in the area.

Considering the ever-shifting weather, never-ending road construction and other issues, the routes of parades can change right up until the last minute. For second-lines specifically, the routes can be found on WWOZ’s “Takin’ It To The Streets” page at wwoz.org as parade time approaches.
