Mardi Gras Orlando is a chef-driven Fat Tuesday celebration created to support the RAPCF and our mission to Protect, Promote, and Educate Central Florida’s independent restaurants and allied partners.

 

We can’t do it without you. Your sponsorship helps offset the cost of producing this event—allowing more of the net proceeds to go directly back into programs and initiatives that strengthen our local hospitality community.
