Mardi Gras Classic

Harper College - Palatine

Chicago, Illinois

Our 5th annual Mardi Gras themed event has grown into one of the largest in Chicagoland with over 100 teams! With Mardi Gras parades just before each awards session, your team athletes and fans will have an absolute blast! We give out literally thousands of beads, whistles, crawfish, and themed souvenirs. Teams will be competing for Championship titles and Paid Nationals Bids to the 100+ team ELITE Go BIG! National Championship in April (which has been moved to DeKalb, IL's NIU Convocation Center Arena)! This event is great for both All Star and School/Rec cheer & dance teams.
