Mardi Gras on March 5th marks the end of the Carnival season in New Orleans, a period observed by many Roman Catholics that starts at Epiphany on January 6 and ends on the "Tuesday" before Ash Wednesday (Mardi Gras). Since Mardi Gras is the last day before lent (a solemn period observed by prayer, repentance, fasting, and moderation), it is often associated with lavish Carnival - like celebrations. Ash Wednesday is always 46 days before Easter.
Easter can fall on any Sunday from March 23 to April 25, with the exact date to coincide with the first Sunday after the full moon following a spring equinox.The Mardi Gras is not just a day, not just a festival. In New Orleans, Mardi Gras is the most colourful, most insane culmination of the carnival season! Being all about music, parades, alcohol and self-expression,—this event is prepared really thoroughly for months in advance. Everyone is going to enjoy the time.
Let the vivacious and outrages of Mardi Gras New Orlean captivate all your senses for two weeks by participating in this international carnival and number one extravaganza in America. Perhaps we can celebrate here in Hawaii too. There are traces on the Big Island, Maui and Kauai. Mardi Gras may be an ancient celebration but there's always some place new to discover.
"Social dancers believe that dance can be a game of extreme emotions and freedom
of the soul, where nothing may ever be the same.”
