Mardi Gras is a celebration that takes place every year on the day before Lent, which is a 40-day period of fasting and prayer before Easter.

The origins of the name "Mardi Gras" are French, and mean "Fat Tuesday" as the celebration is known for its parades, costumes, and delicious food.

The tradition started with pagans celebrating the end of winter, but as Christianity was adopted in Europe, it became a day before Lent, which is a time when Christians eat all their favorite foods before giving them up for 40 days.

The most popular tradition associated with the celebration is probably eating king cakes, which are pastries that contain a small, plastic figurine of a baby representing Jesus. Whoever gets the figurine in their slice of cake is expected to host the next year's party.

Other common traditions include parades, parties, and a variety of foods with local favorites such as King Cake, beignets, paczki, hotcakes, and pancakes.
