Krewe of Bacchus - Signature Floats

Signature Floats
Bacchasaurus An innovative new float, the "gentle dinosaur" first appeared in 1972.
Bacchagator A Bacchus mainstay for years, the Bacchagator was introduced in the Krewe's 1986 parade. The 105-foot, three piece float can accommodate 86 riders. Originally debuted as green, the float was modified in 1997 to resemble the rare white "leucisitic" alligator that makes it home at the New Orleans Aquarium of the Americas. The alligator returned to green in the 2005 parade and remains that way to the present date.
Bacchawhoppa In 1991, the 85-foot long mammoth Bacchus whale joined the parade. The Bacchawhoppa comfortably holds 68 Krewe members.
Baccha-Amore Float
King Kong The King Kong float joined the Bacchus family when the Krewe presented its 1972 parade, The Bacchus Book of Horrors". The giant float stood 18-feet tall and quickly became a smashing success.
