What better name than “Poseidon” for a krewe in Slidell, a community surrounded by water. The co-ed Krewe of Poseidon, named after the Greek god of the sea, earthquakes, and horses, has grown to be one of the largest krewes on the Northshore. They typically roll with 700 riders and 25 floats, including super floats, tandems, and doubles. Poseidon prides itself on offering keepsake throws, including tridents, medallion beads, footballs, doubloons, and cups. Expect to catch lots of “light-ups” along with beach towels, t-shirts, crawfish trays, bottle openers, and krewe socks. When you attend the Krewe of Poseidon parade, you can expect to catch something out of the ordinary. In 2024, LSU baseball hero/ National Champion Brayden Jobert will serve as Grand Marshal.
Along with being committed to fun, the Krewe of Poseidon is dedicated to supporting the Slidell community. They do so through the promotion of social interaction and philanthropy.
