10th Annual Baytowne Bash Fat Tuesday Parade 
Prepare to let your hair down on what many call the most festive day of the year, Fat Tuesday, the day before Ash Wednesday.

“Laissez les bon temps rouler” (let the good times roll) with the 10th annual Fat Tuesday Baytowne Bash Parade rolling through Sandestin. Yell “throw me something mister” as unique and colorful floats, golf carts, and pick-up trucks roll down the streets and marchers dressed up in all their Mardi Gras best shower parade-goers with a barrage of beads, moon pies, and other trinkets.

The post-parade celebration continues into the night with street performers, “throws” tossed from balconies on Main St, and parties at various Baytowne establishments.

The 9th annual Mardi Gras Dog Parade will be held this Sunday, Feb. 19 in Baytowne Warf. This year’s theme is Cruisin’ Canines: Fetch a Wave!

The streets of Baytowne will be filled with costumed dogs in sunglasses and swimsuits, and their humans tossing beads and other parade favors.

Themed convertibles, small floats, golf carts, bicycles and decorated wagons will be all over the Baytowne.
