On Fat Tuesday, the heart of North Portland beats to the rhythm of brass and drums as the Portland Mardi Gras Parade lights up Mississippi Avenue.
This free, family-friendly event unites Portlanders of all ages in a celebration of creativity, joy and community. Expect dazzling costumes, puppets, dance troupes, marching bands, flambeaux, circus performers, and other groups bring signature flair to the streets.
Catch beads, signature hand-decorated umbrellas, and smiles — or join in the Second Line as the parade winds down to Fremont Street for after-parade festivities.
Bring the little ones early for the Kid’s Costume Pageant at Luke’s Frame Shop (Albina & Mississippi) at 5:45 p.m., and then roll right into the parade at 7:00 p.m.
Local businesses up and down Mississippi host Mardi Gras specials, live performances, and themed events all evening. Full details available at PortlandMardiGras.com
