Mardi Gras is a grand occasion for all in the city of new orleans. People from all over the world come to the Big Easy to experience the age-old traditions of Mardi Gras. Besides all of the parades, king cakes, and bar-hopping is a golden nugget of an event: Fleur de Lit. Fleur de Lit is the epitome of lit for electronic music lovers, whether they be local or tourists.
This year, the event boasts headliners Getter (2.9) and G Jones (2.10). Opening for Getter on Friday is artists Klutch and Kidd Love. On Saturday, sfam and TVBOO are slated to open for G Jones. Most of these artists are New Orleans natives and have learned all the ins and outs of surviving Mardi Gras.
Get the most out of your Mardi Gras week with tips from your Fleur de Lit openers!
Klutch
New Orleans native Klutch is no stranger to Mardi Gras and all the exciting activities surrounding it. He frequents Republic NOLA often with electrifying performances that get the crowd pumped.
What Mardi Gras tips does Klutch have for you?
- Don’t be afraid to talk to strangers.
- Its a marathon, not a sprint. Although we do love to sprint through the marathon anyways.
- Be kind, thoughtful, and considerate. Southern hospitality is a real thing, and it can take you to amazing places while you’re in town.
