Bourbon Street Balcony Parties
Your semi-private party, above the madness.
No payment to inquire. We confirm every detail with you before you book.
Whether it’s on the parade route or on Bourbon Street, our Balcony Parties are a good time.
The ultimate VIP vantage point
There’s Mardi Gras… and then there’s Mardi Gras from a balcony. Raise a glass with your favorite people.
The music thunders below, the crowd pulses with energy, and you? You’re looking down on it all — drink in hand, tossing beads to a sea of revelers screaming for more.
Whether you’re planning a bachelor or bachelorette bash, hosting a corporate event or gathering the crew for a family celebration, a semi-private balcony is your backstage pass to the wildest show on Earth — without ever leaving your party.
“I can’t say how impressed I was with how easy Mardi Gras Made Ez made our experience in a very “busy” time of the year in New Orleans.”

Good to know
Questions, answered
Is the balcony just for our group?
Our balcony parties are semi-private. When you inquire, we’ll walk you through the setting for your dates and group size.
Who are balcony parties for?
Bachelor and bachelorette parties, corporate groups, family celebrations — anyone who wants Mardi Gras from above the crowd instead of in it.
Can we throw beads?
Absolutely. Endless beads and throws are part of the party — the crowd below will be screaming for them.
Do you offer group rates?
Yes. Tell us your group size when you inquire and we’ll include group rates in your options.
How is this different from the Balcony Hopper?
