KREWE FAQ

  • The Krewe of Ballizo was founded in 2021 by the Southeast Alabama Dance Company’s Tech Crew and supporters who have been creating the magic for our dancers since 1979!

    Our mission is to promote good-spirited fellowship, amusement, and entertainment throughout the year with special emphasis placed on the annual Mardi Gras season. 

    Through our coed organization, we unite our community through charitable engagement and social celebrations, fusing time-honored traditions with our unique flare.

    Together, we continue to support the cultural landscape of Mardi Gras and SEADAC.
