Mobile’s Finest
Founded in 1977, the Conde Cavaliers open the downtown Mobile parading season. Members proudly point out that they held a ball and a parade in their first year. The organization is named after the celebrated French general, Prince de Conde, for whom Fort Conde in downtown Mobile is named. It’s a large group, and these gents always like to throw. One of the group’s four permanent floats, The Conde Cavalier Express, is an impressive, self-propelled, four-unit train.
The Conde Cavaliers will roll on February 14th, 2025 at 6:30 pm and the parade includes 16 floats by Royal Artists of New Orleans.
