It was announced today that Rod will perform at Endymion 2018 carnival krewe’s signature after party in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome New Orleans.
Jason Derulo will also take to the stage during the Endymion Extravaganza, which kicks off just after the massive parade finishes rolling on February 10, 2018.
Endymion founder and captain Ed Muniz made the announcement this morning at Mardi Gras World.
“I have been a Rod Stewart my fan my whole life,” Munoz said. “We’re the same age.”
Endymion rolls on the Saturday before Mardi Gras every year, starting with what organizers bill as the country’s largest block party on the Orleans Avenue neutral ground in Mid City.
During the Extravaganza, Late Show with Stephen Colbert bandleader and New Orleans native Jon Batiste will also perform, along with local favorites the Topcats, Groovy 7, and the Bucktown Allstars.
