Mardi Gras Disco Train - Knights of Babylon

What is the Disco Amigos' Disco Train?

The Disco Train is a rolling disco party that follows the Disco Amigos in the Mardi Gras parades. If you've ever wanted to participate in Mardi Gras but don't want the commitment and expense of joining a krewe, then our Disco Train is for you!  It is open to anyone 21 and over who wants to join our funky disco party!

Your Disco Train purchase comes with a ticket to the Knights of Babylon parade and a full membership to the Disco Amigos from Feb 1 - May 31, which will allow you to participate in our social and charity events and post-Mardi Gras parades. You can also attend weekly practices to learn our funky moves.  This is a great way to see if you want to dance with the Amigos year-round!   More information on your membership will be provided after Mardi Gras.

As a Disco Train Member, on parade day, you will:

• Have fun dancing with and entertaining the crowd
• Have food and drinks provided before and during the parade
• Have access to the Amigos port-o-lets - the Disco Ball
• Have a unique and memorable experience!

Disco Train Requirements:

• Disco attire is a MUST!  Find a butterfly collar polyester shirt, bell bottoms, jumpsuit, platform shoes, sequin, glitter, fun 70's accessories (wigs, necklaces, sunglasses). 
• Nothing larger than a purse.  Bring what you can carry but you will also be able to put your small bag in a storage box during the parade. 
• You are welcome to bring your own drinks for the Disco Train ice chest (no glass bottles).
• No Party Favors! Mardi Gras law does not allow parade marchers to throw beads, cups, doubloons, stuffed animals or any other items.
• Party, dance and have fun!
