Looking for an entertaining Mardi Gras fix before your stressful last week of classes before spring break? This Saturday night, Feb. 25, Ushuaia will celebrate Mardi Gras a few days early. This party will take the place of Ushuaia’s usual Soul Saturdays.

The Mardi Gras events are an annual tradition at Ushuaia. “Most of our holidays we do on the day, but this year [Mardi Gras] is the Tuesday before spring break, which is prone to tests, so we thought we would spice up our regular Saturdays that are usually huge with a Mardi Gras vibe,” said Alex Gray, Ushuaia owner.

The Ushuaia DJs will be in the club, providing music for what looks to be a fun Mardi Gras party.

Beads and prize giveaways are both promised for the event. “We have several prizes from local merchants and we’ll have some fun giving them away,” said Gray.

The event will be ages 18 and older. For people over 21, the price will be $5. All under-21 partygoers will pay $8 admission. The doors will open at 8 p.m. For anyone seeking a way to save their Saturday night with an exciting Mardi Gras-style event, a stop by Ushuaia would be the right idea.
