Five New Orleans Carnival incidents in 10 days prompted investigations and internal reviews (Feb. 7–17, 2026).

- Feb. 7: JP Morrell said Krewe of Freret violated the Mardi Gras ordinance after koozies promoting a THC-infused seltzer were allegedly thrown.
-Feb. 8 & Feb. 15: Riders were removed from Krewe of Carrollton Float 10 and Krewe of Thoth Float 32 after complaints of aggressive bead throwing; NOPD later said no criminal charges were filed and clarified a statement about Thoth.
-Feb. 14 & Feb. 17: Krewe of Tucks faced backlash after photos showed Black dolls appearing to hang by beads; and during Zulu, a 4-year-old was allegedly struck by a bottle thrown from a float, according to his mother.
-What’s still unknown: In the Zulu case, officials said they are still investigating and working to identify the rider involved; the full outcomes of several internal reviews have not been finalized.
