The Krewe of Europa participates in more than 11 parades annually and, to date in 2026, has already appeared in seven parades across four countries and seven different cities, continuing to expand its reputation as the world’s first and only international parade krewe.

Founded in 2020, The Krewe of Europa is a Tampa, Florida-based philanthropic and parading organization dedicated to promoting cultural exchange, international friendship, and charitable causes supporting veterans. The organization is recognized as the first international parade krewe to hold voting membership within the Federation of European Carnival Cities.

Dubbed “America’s Krewe,” the globally touring organization serves as an international festival ambassador, giving members the opportunity to travel throughout North America and Europe while celebrating diverse cultures and traditions. In addition to participating in international events, the Krewe also welcomes and hosts visiting dignitaries and international guests during Tampa’s historic Gasparilla celebrations.

The Krewe of Europa will also feature its 2027 parade season in its upcoming documentary series, “Curiosity Abroad with the Krewe of Europa.” The documentary brings the culture, history, and traditions of international parades and carnivals to television audiences across the globe while showcasing the Krewe’s journey as America’s first international parade krewe.

In addition to these announced appearances, the Krewe of Europa plans to reveal five additional 2027 events in the coming months, including three additional parades in Europe and two within the United States.

The Tampa-based Krewe of Europa also maintains several international and regional partnerships focused on promoting cultural exchange and tourism opportunities for the Tampa Bay region, including a recently announced partnership with Visit Tampa Bay.
