Mardi Gras at Oriole Bar
AN Outdoor Celebration
Saturday, 1st March | The Yards, Covent Garden from 3pm -6pm
Join us for a one-of-a-kind Mardi Gras celebration in The Yards, featuring live music, indulgent New Orleans-inspired food, and vibrant cocktails.
We will have a sensational live 6-piece brass band from The Fallen Heroes, who will conduct a traditional New Orleans-style parade. They will be playing in and around the Yards and nearby streets between 3-6pm. Foir those of you who like to be inside, we’ll also have the brilliant Dom Pipkin playing New Orleans piano downstairs from 6pm.
So, that’s the music covered, you’re probably wondering what’s on the menu? We’ll be serving a selection of Mardi Gras Specials outside from 3-6pm, including Oyster Rockefeller, Roast Beef Po'boy and Gumbo.
