Get ready to don your masks and unleash your inner reveler!
The City of El Centro is thrilled to unveil the details of its dazzling annual Mardi Gras festivities, featuring the electrifying 2025 Mardi Gras King and Queen nomination process, a regal coronation reception, and the much-anticipated Mardi Gras Parade that promises to light up the night!
Nominate Your Mardi Gras Royalty
Calling all festive spirits! The deadline to submit your nominations for the fabulous Mardi Gras King and Queen is fast approaching — don’t miss out!

Nominees must live or work in El Centro and embody the vibrant essence of Mardi Gras with the colorful symbolism of purple (justice), green (faith), and gold (power).
