Mardi Gras by definition refers to “events of Carnival celebrations”. One of the most famous in the U.S. is held in New Orleans but that doesn’t mean you can’t celebrate the occasion in Colorado’s Mile High City.
For 2023 Mardi Gras is coming again to Denver so ready your costume for an all-nighter. This is a great time to have some crazy fun and meet many other people to share the experience with. This year’s event is held on Saturday, March 1st, 2025 (last event: February 10-11, 2025) at the DoubleTree Hotel in Denver Tech Center at 7801 East Orchard Road Greenwood Village.
