Unmask the Myth: Join Us for the 2026 Amon-Ra Rush Party
Some myths are written. Others are revealed.
On Sunday, March 1, 2026, the Mystic Krewe of Amon-Ra invites you to Unmask the Myth at our annual Rush Party—an open invitation to learn more about one of New Orleans’ longest-standing gay Mardi Gras krewes and the creative community that sustains it.

Noon–4 p.m.
This year’s rush continues the visual language and spirit that carried through our most recent ball. What began as an image—color, mask, and mystery—evolved into a full season of pageantry. Now, the story continues.
Whether you are curious about membership, interested in supporting the krewe, or simply want to see what Amon-Ra is all about, this relaxed, come-and-go afternoon is designed for conversation, connection, and clarity.
Guests can expect:
- A screening of video highlights from our 61st Ball
- The opportunity to meet current members and krewe leadership
- Information about the upcoming season and membership process
- A welcoming space to ask questions and connect
Amon-Ra has thrived for decades because of the people who step forward—artists, performers, supporters, storytellers. Some have always known they were meant to join. Others discovered it quite unexpectedly.
Some myths are chosen. Some choose you.
61 Years of Gay Mardi Gras!
