The Mistick Krewe of Okeanos is set to host its annual Carnival Ball.
The Krewe will showcase the crowning of a new King and Queen and their 2023 court of debutantes during the ball on Saturday, Jan. 7. The Krewe will also celebrate its yearly accomplishments.
“The ball is basically a party, so there is drink, food and entertainment where members enjoy a night out,” said Wayne Kraemer, a founder of the Krewe of Okeanos. “At 9 p.m., the King and Queen are presented, followed by the Debutantes and their Dukes. The debutantes do a father daughter dance, and then there is the Grand March, where all Ball attendees march up to the King and Queen to bow, pay their respects and offer congratulations. Then, more food and drink and dancing.”
