Established in 1998, the Ancient Druids take their name from priest class of ancient Celtic societies who connected their people with the gods and nature. The Ancient Druids are a parade-only krewe, they do not have a bal masques or traditional royalty. Their membership is limited to members of other Carnival organizations and sits at a cut-off of 200 members. There is one traditon that the Druids observe; the complete secrecy of its members and its king, the Archdruid, whose identity is never revealed.
