With the King William Fair and King William Parade both canceled due to COVID-19, several local neighborhood associations decided to throw a different kind of parade of homes, borrowing an idea that originated in New Orleans in February when neighbors there decorated their front yards and porches to celebrate Mardi Gras after the celebration was canceled.
Homeowners were encouraged to festoon their homes Fiesta-style. Many residents went the extra mile with elaborate themes, such as a battle of the vaccines on Mission Street, a luchador-inspired Medal Mania on Madison, and Moira Rose s wall of wigs at the Schitt s Creek homage on Adams.
