Southern Decadence
August 29th
to September 2nd
For 48 years, gay and lesbian people have poured into New Orleans on Labor Day Weekend for an over the top party that has come to be known as Gay Mardi Gras. The numbers keep growing as New Orleans is filled with gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people for Southern Decadence. AS FOR DA.BEARS we're all over it with beer busts, block parties, pool parties, and other events. In 2019, stick with us and you'll have a good time.
We still have Southern Decadence Fire Department T-shirts. HERE.
If you want to get updates or get involved or simply connect with the Bears during Southern Decadence, follow us on Facebook or send us an email.
