It’s the time of year when cabin fever sets in, and we all need a reason to get out and have some fun. As Mardi Gras approaches, Main Street Kent is partnering with Abita Brewing Company out of New Orleans, LA, to host the second annual Kent Mardi Crawl on Saturday, March 2 in downtown Kent.
The Kent Mardi Crawl starts at the Venice Café (163 W. Erie St.), where attendees can check in from 5PM to 8PM to pick up their crawl “passes” and event Mardi Gras themed giveaways. Then, guests will head out on the town to explore great restaurants and bars in downtown Kent, collecting Mardi Gras beads, masks, and other fun items along the way! Participating locations include: Ray’s Place, Venice Cafe, Franklin Hotel Bar, Water Street Tavern, Euro Gyro, Panini’s, Bricco, Barflyy, Dominick’s, Treno and 157 Lounge. All guests will receive a raffle ticket, giving them a chance to win a “Mardi Gras Party Kit” valued at over $100. Drawing will be held on Mon., March 4.
There is no minimum number of locations to visit during the event; guests are welcome to visit as many or as few locations as they wish. Please Mardi Crawl responsibly with a designated driver, taxi or driving service. This is an all-weather event and tickets are non-refundable. Event proceeds will benefit Main Street Kent, with a significant portion designated to the Ben Curtis Family Foundation.
