It’s officially Mardi Gras time at Universal Studios Orlando!

Universal’s Mardi Gras celebration will last from February 5th to April 24th, and today we’re visiting the Mardi Gras Tribute Store to check out all how Mardi Gras floats are made. Come along with us!
This year’s Mardi Gras Tribute Store is themed as a float factory, where you can see how parade floats are made!

Here’s a closer look at the sign on the outside of the store!

When you enter, you see tons of displays showing you how Mardi Gras floats are made!

Here are some blueprints and decorations…

There are plans everywhere detailing the process!
