Last year, the menu boards for Mardi Gras food tents at Universal Orlando went up later than expected. Some of the Mardi Gras food and beverage menu boards changed overnight right before the event started last year. Though the process has been slow, we now have almost all the Mardi Gras food and beverage tent menus.
Earlier in the week, guests could view signage on Mardi Gras food tents indicating which countries would be featured on the food and beverage booths. Then on Thursday morning, most of the Mardi Gras food and beverage menus appeared in the appropriate locations. Later that day, all the menu boards went up.
On Thursday, Universal Orlando posted the menus online. Many alcoholic beverages have souvenir cup options and various sizing so prices will vary.
Please consult photos of menu boards for prices.
Let us take a walk around Universal Orlando, looking at the Marid Gras food and beverage tents and their menus.
