What a week it’s been!
Between the nitric acid spill and the snow (or was it?), you may be looking for some good ol’ fashioned fun this week into the weekend. Let’s take a peek at what’s going on around the Old Pueblo this week.
Will there be plenty of opportunities to get out of the house?
Between the Arizona Craft Beer Week kicking off, the Off the Vine festival, Main Event’s scavenger hunt, and more, you might even have too much to do.
The Parish and The Delta are hosting two Mardi Gras Festivals in partnership with Tucson Foodie. They’ll be featuring some of their all-time favorites like a crawfish boil (sold by the pound), a full alligator roast (sold by the quarter-pound), Cajun sampler plates, King Cake, face painters, and a handful of the best live music in town.
Some of the Tucson Foodie team will be at The Delta’s event, which begins at 4 p.m., and The Parish’s party kicks off a little earlier at 1 p.m.
Cost: The Mardi Gras Festival at both restaurants is $15 per person and can be purchased at the door. All food and beverages are sold separately but each ticket comes with complimentary beads and a mini Hurricane or Abita draft beer.

If you find one of the pins, there’s a chance you could win an invite to Main Event’s VIP Opening Party and free games for a full year. Or even better, there’s a golden pin, a la Willy Wonka style, that could earn you free prizes for life!
