These songs all have a festive and celebratory tone that is perfect for Mardi Gras.

I can listen to this song over, and over, and over, and over I hope you enjoy a few of my favorite Mardi Gras songs! With jubilant piano melodies, snazzy horns, and carefree whistling, "Go To The Mardi Gras" is another festive song that will make you want to book a plane ticket to New Orleans. Like other songs on this list, the snappy tune mentions two real New Orleans street names - St. Claude and Dumaire.
