It wouldn’t be Mardi Gras without a parade, and this year, six new floats debut during the party animal-themed Mardis Gras parade. The procession runs nightly throughout the streets of Universal Studios Florida and features detailed floats, energetic stilt performers and dancers, and of course, beads. New floats this year feature animals from the artic, jungle, ocean, and more, for a total of 12 floats engineered by Kern Studios, the company that has created floats for the infamous New Orlean celebration since 1947.
Mardi Gras also brings a delicious assortment of Cajun cuisine to Universal Orlando Resort. New this year, all food and beverage items are tasting size, offering the chance to experience a wider sample of dishes like gumbo, jambalaya, po boys, and more. This year, new menu items include frog legs, crab etouffee, and craft beer flights featuring regional brews from Louisiana.
