Custom Built Mardis Gras Float

Our client needed a float for the New Orleans Krewe of Tucks Parade. They contacted Custom Creation to design, fabricate and deliver the float to New Orleans. We found a trailer to use as the base of the float and shaped it using wooden planks. We fabricated the float with the usual riggings found on a ship as well as added an outhouse for convenience sake.

Through the years; canons, figureheads, a smoke system, and sound effects were added to their Mardi Gras Parade Float. The air powered bead canons were very popular, but the police took them away for safety reasons. One of the biggest challenges we had was where to put all the beads.

Do you have an event that need custom props or scenery? Give us a call, we can help!
