Nevada City’s annual Mardi Gras Celebration is set for Sunday, February 27, 2022. The annual event features a festive parade and Street Fair throughout historic downtown Nevada City, offering up spirited fun for all ages
Nevada City has been known to throw a party and its version of Fat Tuesday is no exception! People come just for this colorful annual event that lights up the streets with bright costumes, beads and a sense of playfulness.
Come early for lunch and shopping. The Street Fair on N. Pine & Commercial Streets open from 12pm-4pm, you can find accessories for your perfect costume, shop hand-made gifts or pick up some extra beads for friends. Mardi Gras shirts, masks will be available for sale, along with vendors selling food, drinks, and more.
Spectators will crowd the streets to enjoy the floats and revelers at the annual Mardi Gras Parade, which starts at 2pm on Broad Street. Everyone is encouraged to wear festive Mardi Gras attire.
Along with the fun, Nevada City also honors noteworthy citizens for their contributions to the community. Each year the Mardi Gras Planning Committee chooses four (4) individuals that have impacted Nevada City’s community positively to serve as the Mardi Gras King and Queen and the Grand Duke and Grand Duchess. The committee also honors a Grand Marshal, who leads the parade.
