Future Mardi Gras Dates
February 21 - March 4, 2025
The date of Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday) is determined by the date of Easter. Mardi Gras is 47 days before Easter. Easter falls on the Sunday that follows the first full moon (Paschal full moon, or ecclesiastical full moon) occurring on or the day after the March equinox. If the full moon occurs on a Sunday, however, then Easter is observed the following Sunday.
