Swampus Returns
New Orleans’ Official Sustainability Parade!
More Than a Halloween Parade
Swampus Returns proves Halloween doesn’t need a mountain of trash to be unforgettable.
We build our costumes by hand and repurpose what other people throw away. Our throws are made to be kept, not swept into the basins the next morning. What gets people talking is the imagination behind it all. Nobody remembers the corporate floats. They remember the costume somebody spent all year on.
Swampus is the only Halloween parade in New Orleans built around sustainability from the start. We think about our community’s impact in every decision we make.
Meet the Makers of Swampus
Every krewe and organization that joins in does sustainability their own way. Some hand build every costume from scratch. Some skip the throws people just toss aside. Some just show up and prove a Halloween parade doesn’t need a truck full of plastic to be great.
