Every spring, Universal Studios Florida celebrates Mardi Gras, recreating the famous, family-friendly New Orleans street party with an exciting parade and many live music concerts. Known as “Florida's Biggest Party”, Mardi Gras Orlando features around 14 concerts, 1.7 million beads, and a breathtaking parade.
The annual tradition sees big-name music acts performing from early February to mid-April, with a nightly parade. The wacky and colorful Mardi Gras parade takes place at around 8pm. It sees millions of beads thrown into the air for spectators, with artists performing from the top of glamorous floats.
