Krewe of Xanadu

Greek Mythology based on Zeus and his 9 muses. We started in 1990 and formed the Krewe that has grown into the wonderful organization it is today.

Why Our Signature Color is PINK!

In 1998, the ball entertainment featured dancers with costumes and pink wigs. The first wigs were the hot pink page boy styles. The ladies wore the wigs on the parade float that year and pictures of Xanadu parade ladies hit the papers!!!! Ladies then started wearing large hot pink beads to go with the pink wigs. They were a hit!!

When you saw a pink lady you knew she was a member of the Krewe of Xanadu! Pink became our signature color.
