Universal Orlando Resort has announced the headliners taking the stage for its 2017 Mardi Gras celebration – a family friendly version of the famed New Orleans bash that features Cajun-style cuisine, authentic New Orleans flare, a parade, and – on select nights – live concerts by a star-studded lineup of musical artists covering everything from pop and R&B to rock and disco.

Universal’s Mardi Gras 2017 runs daily from Feb. 4 through March 25 – giving your clients 50 nights to join the celebration. For 12 select nights during the event, guests can enjoy performances by nationally recognized musical acts, including Fifth Harmony, NE-YO, Toby Keith and rock band Collective Soul.

The celebration also includes a uniquely themed nightly parade featuring festive Mardi Gras floats – complete with New Orleans-inspired music, dozens of colourful dancers and stilt performers, and more than a million beads.

Travellers can also enjoy authentic New Orleans-style cuisine at The French Quarter Courtyard and performances by bands pulled straight from Bourbon Street.
