If traditional Mardi Gras celebrations cannot take place in February, could they happen some other time on the calendar in 2021? Jefferson Parish President Cynthia Lee Sheng indicated they could, possibly in the summer or fall.

The Jefferson Parish council is scheduled to take up the Mardi Gras schedule at their December 9 meeting.

The Times-Picayune | New Orleans Advocate reports some of the rules on minimum numbers of float riders, marching bands, and other parade elements could be relaxed in Jefferson.
