Celebrating Mardi Gras on Long Island

Long Island's Premiere Limousine Service
P: (631) 587-8500

Music, parades, floats, costumes, beads — Mardi Gras is celebrated in grand fashion in New Orleans. Did you know, the first Mardi Gras parade in NOLA dates back to February 24, 1857? Free to attend, economic impact reports indicate that Mardi Gras generates over $1 billion in annual spending! 

If you’re unable to book a last minute flight to The Greatest Free Show on Earth, don’t fret! There’s plenty of Fat Tuesday festivities happening right here on Long Island! 

Big Daddy’s — Massapequa
It’s Mardi Gras Madness Week! From now until Fat Tuesday enjoy seven nights of live music and specials, from Live Crawfish Boils to a Classic New Orleans Style Buffet. In celebration of Fat Tuesday, doors will open from 11a — 4p for lunch with live music courtesy of Jack Morelli Trio. Looking for some nighttime shenanigans? Purchase tickets for their Classic New Orleans Style Buffet and live music from The Johnny Mac Band! Tickets cost $35 in advanced and costumes are highly recommended.

Storyville — Huntington
Head to Huntington for a true Louisiana experience! Enjoy a three course meal for $34.95 while listening to smooth blues, dirty, New Orleans tunes courtesy of Ed from Sweet-N-Low.

Get ready for some weekend-long Mardi Gras festivities at this authentic Louisiana southern BBQ restaurant, housed in a 40 person vintage railroad car diner. Specials include Alligator Ribs, Fresh Crawfish Boils, Cajun Fried Oysters and Mardi Gras King Cake!
