"The Krewe of Charleston was founded in 2009 by Donnie Bulliard, a Louisiana transplant who envisioned a New Orleans style Mardi Gras parade through the streets of the Holy City, Charleston (SC).  The Krewe hosted its first Grande Bal Masque on January 30, 2010 to the delight of 500 spectators. 

The KOC is gearing up for the 2011 Bal Masque.  Reigning in as Queen is former First Lady of SC, Jenny Sanford.  We are also hosting a yacht parade and planning the first ever Mardi Gras parade down the historic streets of Charleston. 

The Krewe of Charleston is the only Mardi Gras Krewe on the Atlantic Coast.
