Asheville Mardi Gras Parade 2023 @ South Slope / Downtown Asheville | Asheville | North Carolina | United States

We love and respect our community, and Asheville is not Bourbon Street. Alcohol and nudity are not part of our twist on Mardi Gras in the Asheville Mardi Gras Parade in downtown Asheville’s South Slope. Parade participants will line up along Southside Ave. between 1:00pm and 2:00pm on parade day. The parade will then step off at its traditional time of 3:05pm and officially begin when it hits the corner of Southside and Coxe Ave. The parade will then continue north on Coxe, turn right on Buxton, left on S. Lexington, and left on Church St. briefly before turning left on Banks and then left on Coxe again. The parade will head south on Coxe and finish up back at the intersection with Southside Ave.

It’s their 16th annual official parade and the theme is: Out Of This World!

“We love and respect our community, and Asheville is not Bourbon Street. Alcohol and nudity are not part of our twist on Mardi Gras in the mountains. We are promoting a fun, safe event for all ages – with a definite emphasis on FUN!”

QUEENS BALL!
The Queens Ball will be held at the Funkatorium after the parade from 6:00pm-10:00pm. The event will feature live music and a cash bar and is 100% FREE OF CHARGE!
