2016

First parading in 2016, the Mystic DJ Riders is an offshoot of the MLK Monday Mystics, part of the Lundi Gras daytime parades on Route D.

Those parades have become so float-laden, there's very little room for so-called additional or extra units. So organizers thought, why not build a parading organization around them?

"This really is another avenue for the DJs to participate in Mardi Gras," a co-founder said. "You're going to hear plenty of music in this parade."

The Mystic DJs will roll on February 15, right after the Bayport Parading Society, with 15 floats - including the newly repurposed Circus Wagon - and six DJ wagons. Their theme will be Carnival Style, and Grand Marshal will be Will Brown (DJ Lil Will). Ambassador 1 will be Tydus Williams, while Ambassador 2 will be Walter Cummings. Queen will be Taffiany Rodgers.
