Burlington's Common Craft Hosting Mardi Gras Event Saturday Night

BURLINGTON, MA — People looking to celebrate Mardi Gras this weekend don't need to venture to the Big Easy. One spot in Burlington will make you feel like you're on Bourbon Street.

From 8 p.m. to midnight on Saturday, Common Craft at Burlington Mall, 75 Middlesex Turnpike, will be hosting a Mardi Gras celebration.

The free event will feature live music, DJ Carl spinning tunes, raffle giveaways, games and drink specials.

Revelers are invited to dress in their favorite masquerade costumes, and the person with the most beads will win a grand prize, according to organizers.

"There's no place like Common Craft, in general, but especially to celebrate the featheriest, most vibrant party of the year. Come get loose, shake your face feathers and revel in the offerings of our fan-favorite local producers," organizers said on social media.

First opened last summer, Common Craft is located in the new open-air lifestyle center of the mall and features two taprooms, a speakeasy, and a wine bar and scratch kitchen.
