Thursday: Noche de Salsa
Again this year, we are giving our families the chance to be special Family Sponsors of our carnival. For as little as $50, your family will receive recognition and the opportunity to attend Noche De Salsa!
Noche De Salsa is the special sponsor-only preview event, open to all corporate sponsors and families who purchase a ticket package. On Thursday, March 3, Mardi Gras will open without the long lines! Noche De Salsa will open at 5 p.m. and all rides will be up and running with no long wait times! Delicious samplings of Spanish food will be available, courtesy of the Spanish Pastoral Council. A ribbon-cutting by Mayor Gow Fields will take place at 6:30; dinner and drinks will follow. Also available that evening will be tours of Church of the Resurrection Catholic School for any interested families.
