Welcome to Wordi Gras! The self-proclaimed "Redneck Mardi Gras" brings all the pizazz and party atmosphere of Fat Tuesday to the tiny town of Worden with a parade, live music throughout the evening, festival food, and drinks aplenty!
The Wordi Gras parade begins at 3 PM and travels down Wall Street, starting at Park Street and Drummond Street. Any float or vehicle can enter the parade - just get in line! Entry is free! Watch as a long procession of floats, tractors, decorated trucks, cars, and marchers take part in the Mardi Gras bash of rural America in purple, green, and gold!
Festival food and drink vendors will be on-site throughout the afternoon.
*Most Wordi Gras vendors are cash only!
