Celebrate with community at the Feb. 25 Mardi Gras fête

Laissez les bon temps rouler! The good times will roll at Masks Off: A Mardi Gras Celebration in the Erb Memorial Union Ballroom. Carnival season runs from Twelfth Night in January to Fat Tuesday Eve and the University of Oregon will celebrate Tuesday, Feb. 25, noon to 1:30 p.m.

The Division of Equity and Inclusion, Office of Human Resources, Division of Student Life and the Office of the Provost invite the UO community to come together to celebrate the multiple strands that strengthen us. Whether you're a first-time reveler or a Mardi Gras regular, come enjoy music, food and conversation.

There is no dress code: “Masks Off” means come as you are—we will celebrate our authentic selves. Traditional Mardi Gras colors are purple, green and gold.

Online registration is strongly encouraged.
