Universal Orlando Resort's Mardi Gras: International Flavors of Carnaval is set to make a return in 2023.

The biggest party in Orlando will be back this spring and will once again be taking over Universal Studios Florida. The event turns the park into a carnaval with everything that you would expect.

The event has a huge parade with floats designed by the creative masterminds behind both the parks and the floats in New Orleans. You can even get your opportunity to be a part of the parade. You can enjoy food from Mardi Gras celebrations from all around the world, from Belgium to Brazil. Not forgetting all the amazing merchandise to celebrate the season.
