The annual Mardi Gras celebration isn’t limited to raucous parties in New Orleans.  Another equally entertaining celebration occurs on the streets of Universal Studios Florida in Orlando!

This extended Mardi Gras features amazing street performers, floats, parades, live music from popular performers, cajun cuisine and beads - lots and lots of beads!  And it all starts this weekend at Universal Studios. 

Each Saturday from now thru April 19, Mardi Gras activities are included in the cost of your regular Universal Studios admission ticket.  That means you can spend a full day riding the attractions and then, when the sun goes down, the party really gets cranking.  This weekend, the music features the rocking sounds of Bret Michaels of Poison.  That’ll be followed next week by the Go-Go’s.

Stumble it!
