Mardi Gras at Universal may be in full gear, but the party is just really starting at the park with a huge new party and feast that will bring even more tastes of the Big Easy to Florida. Universal will be rolling out their first ever Bayou Boil, which will bring guests face to face with tons of amazing Crawfish, potatoes corn and more! Here’s all the details:

On select nights, guests can enjoy an all-you-can-enjoy Louisiana-style boil featuring crawfish, shrimp, potatoes and corn-on-the-cob and, upon request, chicken and andouille sausage jambalaya. After, guests will get an exclusive viewing area for the Mardi Gras parade with king cake, beignets, sparkling wine and assorted non-alcoholic beverages to indulge in. The first Bayou Boil will start on February 16 and continue select weekend nights through March 31.

But that’s not all, there’s even more exclusive food and viewing, and even tasting options for this Mardi Gras Season.
