When can I wear my Alegria costume?
The established distinctive costume of The Krewe of Alegria is required dress at all sanctioned events and parade functions unless otherwise advised.
- No member may participate in any function as a representative of The Krewe of Alegria in full costume without prior approval of the Costume Chairs.
- No member may participate in a Krewe-sanctioned event/parade in a costume that has not been approved via Walk the Plank.
- A list of members who haven’t attended a “Walk the Plank” event will be kept at the parade check-in table next to the Alegria float.
- Costumes purchased from other members, borrowed, previously worn but heavily repurposed, or previously purchased but never worn are considered new to you and must be approved via Walk the Plank.
- Please do not show up and expect to walk in the parade if you haven’t attended a Walk the Plank event and received prior approval from the costume chairs for a new, or new-to-you costume.
- No member shall permit any person not a member of The Krewe of Alegria to wear the official costume or Alegria t-shirt. The official costume is not to be used as a “dress costume” for events such as Halloween, Mardi Gras, etc.
