Group announces cancellations of major 2021 Galveston Mardi Gras events
HOUSTON โ The group behind the Grand Night Parade, Coronation and Ball for Mardi Gras in Galveston announced Tuesday the cancellation of its 2021 celebrations. The news release noted that other significant Mardi Gras! Galveston events have also been canceled including the San Luis Salute, hosted annually by the Fertitta Family since 1996. The Knights of Momus said it was a unanimous decision among its executive committee to cancel the events due to the publicโs safety amid the coronavirus pandemic. โWe had hoped we might find some safe way to hold the events, but the current surge in cases entering the holiday season rendered this hope untenable and the risks unmanageable,โ Kenneth Shelton, Jr., chairman of the Executive Committee of the Knights of Momus, said.
