Each year, deep in the heart of winter, the Mardi Gras season lights a spark as it begins in January with the Twelfth Night Dance Party and Celebration at Club Eleven on Grove from 7-10 PM. On this enchanted night, the King and Queen of Asheville’s new Mardi Gras season will be crowned.
All Asheville Mardi Gras supporting members are welcome to take a slice of King Cake. Whoever finds the Mardi Gras baby in his or her slice will pick a royal consort, and the two will lead the Asheville Mardi Gras Parade as newly crowned royalty!
Memberships will be available at the door for $25. As always, costumery and buffoonery are welcome, but not required. Cash bar. Music by DJ Chilligan. Members are free. If you just want to attend the party and not become a member (why wouldn't you?!) the cost is $10.
