Want to be a Mardi Gras Sponsor?

Help us keep the fun alive by sponsoring and participating in the Fayetteville Mardi Gras events! The Saturday parade is a fun and colorful child and family-friendly event that brings thousands of people out for the costumes, floats, and beads. And our newly-revived Fat Tuesday event – The Pub & Grub Crawl – brings the fun and exciting Mardi Gras spirit to Dickson Street during a slow time of the year. All sponsorships include a logo on our website, as well as shout-outs on our Facebook page (with nearly 4,000 followers!).

Did you know that we are a 501(c)3 non-profit? That means by choosing to become a sponsor for our event, your business/organization not only gets exposure, you also earn the gratitude of the community. Supporting the Fayetteville Mardi Gras means supporting the organizations in our area that make Northwest Arkansas shine! CLICK HERE to read more >

All commercial entries (without sponsorship) are assessed the low fee of $75. To enter a commercial float as a non-sponsor, CLICK HERE to register instead.

OR for an additional $75, sign up as a sponsor, and in addition to your parade entry, your business name and/or logo will be listed as a sponsor on our website and Facebook page (nearly 4,000 fans!)
