Carl Mack Presents
From corporate events to birthday parties to weddings, we'll help you book the perfect talent for any occasion. We have 1000's of costumes, many are for rent while some require an entertainer to go with it. We helped spice up an event at the World War II Museum, providing classic vintage costumes and the talent to fit the bill.

Never a dull moment for these convention goers. We provided the entertainment, costumes along with strolling blackjack and roulette tables. No boring child birthday party here. We created an Alice In Wonderland themed event along with creative coloring books for this child's birthday party. Thank you so much for your support of ISES Live.

A fab place to rent a costume to be a part of the “fun” when visiting during Mardi Gras season!! Carl is a gracious and talented guy, beyond helpful with last minute needs and his museum is a gem full of NOLA’s special history! Definitely take the time to watch the film on the Mardi Gras Indians!!

We came to New Orleans to celebrate a 60th birthday. We used Carl Mack to organize a second line parade. It turned out AMAZING!!! He was so helpful and easy to work with. I highly recommend them and wish I could give them 10 stars. Thanks for making this a birthday we will never forget.

My company was visiting New Orleans for a meeting and we worked with Carl to organize a second line parade. When I tell you Carl is the best, HE IS THE BEST.

He accommodated every need we had. The original day we planned to have the parade ended up storming. I called him the same day to see if we could move the parade to the next day, and he did it no problem. That usually NEVER happens especially on the same day to change it to the next day. That being said it was a weekday so I'm sure it was easier to change it, but Carl knew exactly who to call to change the permits and have the police

Carl helped us with a very last-minute arrangement of a gorilla gram to some good friends to surprise them at a restaurant for a good laugh and dance. Great customer service

Celebrated my birthday with Carl Mack at the Marci Gras Museum and with a second line and had SUCH an amazing experience. Everyone was so helpful, fun, and supportive. The costume closet was spectacular! Everyone from my grandmother to my 6 year old cousins were having a ball. Great music, amazing atmosphere and Carl could not have been nicer. He did a special birthday performance that warmed my heart and he was so helpful every step of the way in planning and execution. Thank you so much!

My company recently produced an event in NOLA and used Carl Mack Presents for costuming, musical talent, a second line procession and makup artists. We were blown away by the support and creativity Carl and his wonderful staff brought to our event! I highly recommend Carl Mack Presents for all your costume and hired performer/musical talent needs. Don't forget to also stop by his place which is also a museum. I went on a delightful tour with one of his docents and learned all about the history of Mardi Gras- not to be missed!

Museum of costumes worn in previous Mardi Gras events. You can rent their space for your event and they also rent costumes as well as provide costumed talent for your company's private Mardi Gras type party. Highly recommend.

I work in production and hired Carl Mack Presents to provide a little pizzazz to one of our shows. His three female revelers did NOT disappoint. They were on-time, dressed to entertain, and incredibly professional in all aspects of their time on set. My team couldn't be more satisfied with our experience. Stephanie, who helped me arrange the entire event, was quite possibly the most hard-working person in New Orleans. She hustled to get exactly what we needed and did it quickly and with grace. Very happy customers!

I worked with Karl tomorrow at least 25 years.
He, His Associates and His Creative Designers are pleasant, attentive and never use the the
words " That's NOT possible" they are truly the dream team to work with.

This company grossly overcharged me for a dress without any upfront pricing. I rented a southern belle dress for a fraternity event from this company. They had set up a pop up shop of sorts inside the fraternity and had racks of dresses but without any prices posted. I was never told any prices until they had swiped my credit card for an obscene amount. After doing some research I realized I could have bought a dress for less money than my rental price. I went back 2 hours later to return the dress but was told they would not take any returns. I explained I was unaware of their no return policy

Carl Mack was amazing for our wedding! Ricky was super helpful answering all of our questions (on a daily basis) and got us everything we needed and more. I would definitely recommend using them for any event or party in New Orleans!

When you visit New Orleans there is a good chance that you'll find yourself dressing up in a costume for something... parades, parties, festivals, because it's a Tuesday... The Big Easy is the land of revelry and dress up and there is no better place to find something special than at Carl Mack Presents. I'm a French Quarter local and happened into Carl Mack Presents a few years ago as it was just up the street. Since walking in to their wonderland, I've worn probably more than 100 spectacular costumes in parades, to parties, and even out on the dusty playa at Burning Man.

I've only met a couple time with Mr. Mack, but he's always had a smile on for me and runs his space is with an inviting tone.

I'd like to do more work with him in the future.
