Deadwood will host one of its epic city-wide celebrations for Mardis Gras on Feb. 28 and March 1. There will be a full weekend of free food, a parade, masquerade ball, themed cocktails and live music. Plus, there are special open container zones where you can roam from one Deadwood bar to the next (beer and wine only).

Saturday’s events will include a cocktail crawl and a Cajun-themed cookoff from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. Attendees can donate to a local charity by voting for the People’s Choice winner. Contact the Deadwood Chamber of Commerce (605-578-1876) to register!

For a full schedule of events, visit the Deadwood Chamber website. 

Why not stay for both nights? First Gold is just down the road and has free on-site parking, the outstanding Horseshoe Restaurant, and a variety of gaming to keep you entertained all weekend long.
