Catch something new this year!

The Krewe of Iris is stepping out on the streets with new throws like tutus, fanny packs, and of course, their signature sunglasses. Also being added to this year's treasure are new sustainable throws

Founded in 1917, Iris is the oldest and now largest all-female Krewe in New Orleans.

The Krewe of Iris is both a traditional Ball and Parading women’s carnival organization. Our namesake the Goddess Iris, is known as the Goddess of the Rainbow and Messenger to the Gods. Daughter of the god of wonder and the goddess of electricity, Iris’s foundation comes from both the bearers of the calmest mirror-like sea and life-giving storms. As our history helped pave the way for women’s participation in carnival, the Iris’ that came before us weathered those storms to bring us to where we are today. The Krewe currently maintains a global membership of over 3600 active members. We carry on the rich traditions of our founders and the strength of a membership that looks ahead to the future as we blaze forward.

Goddess of the Rainbow, Trailblazer of the clouds
