Join us in beautiful Downtown Bastrop for Mardi Gras in Texas—where authentic Cajun culture meets small-town charm! Our family-friendly event brings the spirit of Louisiana straight to Central Texas with a vibrant blend of music, food, dance, and tradition.

Watch or compete in the gumbo cook-off, stroll the vendor market for handmade goods and tasty bites, and let the kids enjoy activities designed just for them.
Don’t miss the opportunity to explore Bastrop’s unique shops, restaurants, and art galleries while you're here. With multiple related events across the weekend, there’s something for everyone. Costumes encouraged, and admission is free on Saturday!
