A Festival Beyond the Music

The Mardi Gras celebration at Universal is much more than concerts. Each evening, a vibrant parade featuring glittering floats designed by New Orleans’ renowned Kern Studios lights up the park, with beads flying and performers dazzling the crowds. Foodies will love sampling Carnaval-inspired dishes and drinks from around the globe, available at various international food booths throughout the park.

This year’s Mardi Gras: International Flavors of Carnaval promises a perfect blend of music, food, and entertainment. Whether you’re singing along with T-Pain, dancing to the beats of Illenium, or catching beads at the parade, there’s no better way to immerse yourself in the spirit of celebration.

Make your plans now to experience the magic of Mardi Gras at Universal Studios Florida—where music, flavor, and fun come together like never before!
