Is your KREWE set for the Lubbock Meals on Wheels 27th Annual Mardi Gras? This lively, family-friendly party is always a blast—and it’s LMOW’s biggest fundraiser of the year!

Mardi Gras, 2026 will include over 37 food booths (with selections from your favorite local restaurants), music by Bo Garza, a large silent auction, and cash bars.  All of this will take place at the Lubbock Memorial Civic Center Exhibit Hall from 5:30pm-8:30pm.  In addition to music and fabulous food, there will be children’s activities, a benefit drawing, and traditional Mardi Gras beads.  Character Selfies Photo Booth will be set up – for a donation of $5, you can get a fun photo commemorating your Mardi Gras celebration.   You’ll see lots of purple (for justice), green (for faith), and gold (for power) – all traditional Mardi Gras colors.  Kiddos will enjoy the Children’s Area featuring bouncers, face and hair painting, and many other activities.  There is no additional charge for activities in the children’s area.

Mardi Gras King & Queen – TBD

Carnival season marks the weeks leading up to Mardi Gras, filled with parades, costumes, music, and the spirit of celebration that brings people together.
