Big Mardi Gras Fun From Small Beginnings

Founded in 2024 at a Thursday breakfast table, Shoe-Be-Boozie started as friends sharing laughs and Mardi Gras ideas over coffee. Today, it’s a Gulf Coast shoebox parade tradition built on creativity, community, and fun-sized floats with full-sized spirit.

Our Story

History of Shoe-Be-Boozie

🗓️ Founded in 2024

Founded in 2024, the Krewe of Shoe-Be-Boozie began as a lighthearted tradition among friends who gathered for breakfast every Thursday. What started as casual conversation and laughter over coffee soon sparked a creative idea — to bring their shared love of Mardi Gras to life in a playful new way. From that very Breakfast Club table, the concept of a shoebox parade was born — a celebration blending imagination, friendship, and the unmistakable festive spirit of the Gulf Coast. Today, the Shoe-Be-Boozie Parade has grown into a beloved local tradition, proving that big fun can start from small beginnings.

  • The Thursday Breakfast Club Where the best ideas start—over coffee and laughs.
  • The Shoebox Parade Idea Tiny floats, huge creativity, and everyone’s invited.
  • A Gulf Coast Tradition Growing year after year with community spirit and Mardi Gras magic.
