Universal Orlando describes Mardi Gras as “Florida’s Biggest Party:”
Forget about your inhibitions. Forget about who’s watching. It’s time to let loose at Universal’s Mardi Gras. This ain’t no fancy tea party. The beads are back. The parade and concerts are back*. And every day and night you can enjoy food from New Orleans and dishes inspired by diverse tastes and flavors from from around the world**. It’s Florida’s Biggest Party, and it’s the loudest, wildest blowout this side of the Bayou.
The Spectacular Parade will take place each night during the event’s time period except April 1, 2 and 8.
Universal’s official description of the parade reads:
It’s an authentic New Orleans Mardi Gras parade complete with dazzling floats, colorful costumes, and beads, beads and more beads. This year’s parade features six brand new floats along with six traditional favorite floats.
In addition to the festivities and live music, Universal Orlando Guests have the opportunity to sample world-class and authentic flavors from around the world. Be sure to visit the Mardi Gras food kiosks located throughout the Park.
If that weren’t all enough, there are also two unique Mardi Gras experiences that you don’t even have to wait until night to enjoy. The Mardi Gras Tribute Store is open at Universal Studios Florida and next door, at Universal’s Islands of Adventures, Guests can take a look in the Hallows VooDoo Boutique located in the Lost Continent.
