Fun at Margate’s Mardi Gras
Holidaymakers and locals took to the streets for Margate’s legendary Mardi Gras last Wednesday.
STARTED by the Margate Business Association nearly two decades ago, the Mardi Gras street parties are held every holiday season.
On party nights, the main street in Margate is closed to traffic from 6pm to 10pm and it becomes the venue for this great street happening.

Stalls sell a wide variety of crafts, flea market fashions and tasty food. Local restaurants and pubs are packed on street party nights and many of the shops extend their trading hours to cater for the crowds.
DJs and clowns provide street entertainment and foot-tapping music gets everyone dancing in the street.
