Every year hundreds of people gather in downtown Ocean Springs to celebrate Mardi Gras on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
After cancelling the parade in 2021 due to COVID, this event is anticipated to bring an even larger crowd than the years before.
The Ocean Springs Night Parade is held the Friday before Fat Tuesday every year.
The parade route will start at 7:00 p.m. on on Front Beach Drive, turn east on Porter Avenue, north on Washington Avenue, then east on Government Street, and end at Holcomb Blvd.
