We'll be there on 2/8 - any idea how crowded the first night generally is? Also - how does one acquire beads? What is this all about? Their website really doesn't give much info. How late does the park stay open for the festivities? Thanks for the help!!!
Mardi Gras Questions!
- Thread starter lsayd
- Start date
This will be our 1st time on opening nite also, so not sure if will be crowded. More than likely it will.
You just stand along the parade route & 15 Mardi Gras floats pass by with riders tossing out strings of beads. Of course, the more active you are (dancin' & hollerin'), the more likely the riders will throw them your way!
Parade takes 30 - 45 mins. The park rides won't be running when parade starts, I don't think anyway. On Sat. nites a concert will begin shortly after parade ends.
You might want to join the Dis group there. Should be about 15-20 of us. Look for the Meet thread on this board.
Hope this helps!
