The terms Mardi Gras and Mardi Gras Season, in English, refer to events of the Carnival celebrations, ending on the day before Ash Wednesday. From the French term Mardi Gras - literally «Fat Tuesday» - the term has come to mean the whole period of activity related to those events, beyond just the single day, often called Mardi Gras Day or Fat Tuesday. The season can be designated by the year, as in Mardi Gras 2009.
This year, a Mardi Gras Costume and Masquerade Ball will take place this coming Saturday, February 21st. The Ball dress code is formal and ranges Medieval, Victorian and Venetian Styles.
There is a whole Event Program with fun attractions, fireworks and joyful activities, which include stalls around the Arena available as a display for our merchants and games like Kissing booth, Dunking booth and mud fight.
