Mardi Gras in France: A Tradition of Indulgence
Mardi Gras, celebrated on Tuesday, 4th March 2025, marks the last day before Lent, a period of fasting in the Christian tradition. In France, it is a time for decadent feasts, joyful parades, and music, with some of the most famous celebrations taking place in Nice, Dunkirk, and Binche.
