Mardi Gras will not see 2021 due to the spiking levels of coronavirus infestations flooding the United States, Your Content has learned.

That’s according to information posted on the city’s official website.

“New Orleans is always open for business,” according to the Mardi Gras 2021 FAQ. “However, all visitors must adhere to local COVID-19 guidelines which include wearing a mask in public and maintaining strict 6ft or more social distancing.”
