Pensacola Mardi Gras and Palafox Market will collaborate for a special event to commemorate the beginning of the 2022 Mardi Gras season. On Saturday, Feb. 19, the award-winning Palafox Market will transform into Mardi Gras Market, fully equipped with purple, green and gold celebration necessities. All 90 krewes and festive observers are invited to shop for Mardi Gras-themed goods on Saturday, Feb. 19, just one week before the Grand Mardi Gras parade marches through downtown Pensacola.
Mardi Gras Market is located on Palafox Street, stretching from Martin Luther King Jr. Plaza to Garden Street. Vendors at the Mardi Gras Market will show off their celebratory creativity with Mardi Gras themed home decor, baked goods, shirts, jewelry, soaps, pet goods and more.
Early birds can pick up a special “Mardi Gras Market†bead from Palafox Market vendors. In the weeks following Mardi Gras Market, the 2022 Pensacola Mardi Gras festivities will continue through early March.
