FAMILY GRAS - A CELEBRATION
Family Gras is the perfect weekend getaway for family. Family Gras traditionally takes place on the neutral ground of Veterans Memorial Boulevard across from Lakeside Shopping Center in Metairie, Louisiana. An ideal location to see the pageantry of Mardi Gras and enjoy the FREE outdoor concerts with Live Music on the Festival Plaza Main Stage & The Louisiana Stage from National Artists and Louisiana's Own.
Costuming encouraged...come out for Fright Night Friday wearing your spookiest threads. Join us Sports Saturday wearing your favorite team colors; and on Carnival Sunday, dress for the season...purple, green and gold!
Flambeaux Court food vendors 'cook up' a good time with such favorites as jambalaya, crawfish pasta, muffulettas, pizza and gator-on-a-stick. Enjoy Louisiana goodies like king cake and pralines.
The Art Market features local and regional artisans booths of specialty arts & crafts available throughout the festival weekend.
Local Hotels feature special packages for your family's comfort. Discount packages will be presented. Check back this summer and fall. Jefferson Parish has accommodations to suit everyone's budget.
