MAKE A LANTERN!

You do need a lantern to walk in the parade!​ Witnessing the people you share a city with as playful volumes of light does a body good. Shine your light and take it to the river with Krewe of the Grateful Gluttons' giant puppets and the Black Sheep Ensemble!

Note: Flying pigs are a Sandy Springs Mascot. Flying pig lanterns are invite to march in the front of the parade. Flying pig lantern kits are in the kit sale, but all flying pigs are welcome!
