This Saturday night, the award-winning rock band Skillet, best known for their Grammy-nominated albums “Collide” and “Comatose,” will rock the stage at Universal Orlando’s Mardi Gras celebration. Before the concert, guests can catch colorful beads by the handful during the festive Mardi Gras parade, which features 12 vibrant floats, including three new additions celebrating Jules Verne’s novel, “Around the World in 80 Days.” Guests can also visit Universal Studios Florida’s very own French Quarter Courtyard to enjoy authentic Cajun cuisine and see performances by bands pulled straight from Bourbon Street.
The “N’awlins”-inspired, family-friendly version of Mardi Gras runs select nights through June 7.
