To Be Crowned
The crown goes where the work went — the member who drove the van, paid the dues, and showed up all year. The club announces its King on its own time.

— Valley of Silent Men Social Aid & Pleasure Club
The Royalty
The club crowns its court close to the Sunday — names and portraits appear here the moment the club announces.
King of the Parade
The crown goes where the work went — the member who drove the van, paid the dues, and showed up all year. The club announces its King on its own time.
Queen of the Parade
Her sash is sewn before her name is spoken. When the club crowns its Queen, her portrait and her story take this spot — and the whole route bows.
Grand Marshal
Baby Doll
Names and portraits post here the moment the club fills its court.
The Route
Every stop chosen by the club — roll the whole loop, in order.

Location
The Start & The Finish
2800 S. Rocheblave St & Washington Ave, New Orleans, LA
Get there early if you want to see the club come out the door. Street parking thins fast; the neutral ground fills faster. The parade closes the loop where it opened.

Final word, morning of the parade
Routes can shift with the NOPD permit. The club’s official route sheet — handed out the morning of the parade and posted here — is the last word. Bring water, tip the bands, respect the ropes.
Add to CalendarRoll In Style
Chauffeured black-car service for the whole Sunday — and yes, you can book her for the parade itself. Put your King, Queen, and Grand Marshal in the back of something beautiful and let the court roll the route the way they deserve.
