Hey Maria!
Welcome to
planDisney!
New Orleans Square inside Disneyland Park is festive year round! It’s always a party down in New Orleans Square with music, great food and even characters walking around from time to time. You can always find something good to eat down by the Bayou!
Although Mardi Gras is not a big celebration in the parks, you will find even more decorations, music, street performers and special food items that day. I’ve even seen Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, Pluto and Chip ‘n’ Dale all dressed up in their Mardi Gras best! This typically happens on Mardi Gras Day only and for 2022, Mardi Gras falls on March 1st.
Ralph Brennan’s Jazz Kitchen inside the
Downtown Disney District has also been known to partake in the celebration that day so be sure to stop by if you make it down. With the parks being closed and all of the uncertainty ahead, it is unknown if this is something that will happen in the future.
Remember, even if you can’t make it on the actual Mardi Gras day, you can celebrate by eating New Orleans inspired food at one of the many restaurants there! The Gumbo and Jambalaya from
Blue Bayou Restaurant is to die for!
Well Maria, I hope 2022 brings you Fat Tuesday specials and colorful beads and feel free to check in with us again in the future.
Remember, always believe in the Magic!
