Happy Mardi Gras!
The annual Mardi Gras Parade at the Port Orleans Resort features floats designed by the Cast Members. Each team, housekeeping, front desk, etc, decorates a float for the parade. It’s held annual on Fat Tuesday!
This year’s theme was 75 Years of Disney Animated Films
We got a chance to see the parade at it arrived at the French Quarter and then ‘followed’ it back to our hotel at Riverside. The floats were just great, we collected so many beads and candy from the cast members! My favorites were the Dumbo float and 101 Dalmations, but there were so many great ones!
This is why I am devoted to Port Orleans French Quarter! What a wonderful and special parade! I’ve stayed at French Quarter for my last three trips and have always loved my time there. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else. I need to plan a trip for Mardi Gras!
The Cast Members did a great job with the floats! I loved the Wreck it Ralph one and Robin Hood. So much detail went into them. It looks like the CMs put in a lot of effort and have a lot of fun!
This video made me laugh out loud and appreciate the cast member’s enthusiasm. Good stuff! Thanks for sharing!
I loved POFQ but have never been during the Mardi Gras celebration. Time for some trip planning!
