I know the parade starts at/near 4th and Spanish Town Rd.

Where do the floats set up prior to that? Trying to figure out traffic patterns because I have to be downtown for an unrelated event (yes, I know I’m stupid).

Spanish Town Parade is on Saturday, February 22, 2020. "No Parking" will be enforced on the parade route starting at 6:00am Saturday morning. All vehicles on the parade route after 6:00am will be towed by Roadrunner Towing Service.
The entire route will be shut down by 10:30am.

Baton Rouge Police will block access to cross streets a block away from the parade route so vehicles can’t drive close to the crowd. At the conclusion of the parade, officers will not allow vehicle traffic on the route until the crowd has cleared.
"Happy Mardi Gras"

I haven't been in years, but I usually park in the residential area off North. Beauregard Town neighborhood. Its a hike, but everything will be.



I'm just getting dropped off or taking a Lyft this year. My office is on the route and we have a parking lot, but I don't plan to drink and drive anyway so no point.

Last 10 yrs, we've parked at DOTD and walk to catch it at the Start.
While it's a bit of a walk, you can GTFO really easy b/c you're at the very beginning of the parade.
