UPDATE – 01/16/25: As of 12:44 p.m., UOAP reservations for Mardi Gras float rides are currently unavailable due to high demand. It is unclear if this is a glitch or if all reservation spots are sold out, so please continue to check back for updates.

Passholders can reserve a spot for themselves and up to eight additional Passholders to ride one of the Mardi Gras floats on select nights from February 1 to March 30, 2025.

Passholders received an email with the information and can reserve a spot online now.

Passholders are limited to one reservation date only and float rider restrictions apply.
