You don’t have to be in the Big Easy to celebrate Mardi Gras in grand style.  Not many places put on the dog for Mardi Gras like Universal Studios  in Orlando.  Universal has been putting on a Mardi Gras extravaganza for 14 years and this, the 15th year, promises to be the best ever.

There is no shortage of beads, beverages, music, or food at Universal Studios Mardi Gras Celebration .  The greatest thing about this Mardi Gras event is it lasts for an extended length of time.  Beginning on February 6 and running through April 17, 2010, you can experience the best of Mardi Gras each Saturday and on select other dates.  Enjoy live music from the likes of Heart, Aretha Franklin, Miranda Lambert, Flo Rida, Sheryl Crow, and many others. 

Experience New Orleans in Orlando by visiting their version of the French Quarter where you will feel as if you are on Bourbon Street with sounds of street bands performing the best in Blues and Zydeco music and the smell and tastes of authentic Cajun food.  And what would Mardi Gras be without a grand parade.  Universal Studios spares no expense in putting on an authentic Mardi Gras parade with incredible floats, performers, and music. 

Make sure you get the best travel package available by booking your reservations today through Orlando Travel Hotels .  Now all you have to do is pack your most outlandish Mardi Gras outfit and get ready to catch some beads.
