Ball Masque Commercial Advertisement Program
Overview:
Corporations and companies can display commercials at the beginning of our annual Ball Masque. Options include: 60-second video ad, 30-second video ad and individual company logo display.
History:
The Krewe of Petronius was formed in 1961 and held the first official LGBTQ Mardi Gras Ball. The Krewe has been presenting the ball annually for over 60 years. These “outsider” Mardi Gras events are known for being more entertaining, colorful and creative versions of their more traditional Mardi Gras krewe counterparts..
Demographics:
For the 2025 ball, there are currently 30 members (ages 21-79), each of whom exclusively invites guests to their specially-designated and elaborately theme-decorated tables. Many members purchase additional tables to increase their party size and the Krewe sells a limited number of tables to sponsors and the public. At the 2024 ball, there were 66 tables, totaling 660 guests, and we are anticipating 700 guests this year due to a considerable increase in the krewe size.
Ad Display:
In the past we have used programs that allowed for companies to place print ads; however, in recent years the Krewe has made significant changes to allow commercials and logo reels to play on a big screen at the center of the stage before the ball begins.
