The Bacchus parade, part of New Orleans' Mardi Gras celebrations, first rolled in 1968. Founded by a group of local businessmen, the parade features elaborate floats and lively themes, celebrating the Roman god of wine and revelry. It has since become one of the most popular and iconic parades during Mardi Gras season.

How many floats are in the Bacchus parade on February 14?

If you are referring to the Mardi Gras parade that has been taking place since 1968, the number of floats varies from year to year. But according to their website, the number in the Bacchus Parade is generally 30-32 floats. The parade you are asking about was from 2010, the year they honored the New Orleans Saints (Drew Brees was the King, and he threw replica gold-colored footballs to the huge crowd); according to most sources, the parade was slightly larger that year. Some news reports said 33 floats, others said 34.
