New Year's Eve - The Perfect Mardi Gras Party Practice

New Year's Eve will be here in a couple of days, and it's the perfect opportunity to get some practice in for the 2018 Lake of the Ozarks Mardi Gras Pub Crawl! We've shared a few things below that you are probably enjoying this weekend that are very similar to what you'll be doing at the biggest party at the Lake of the Ozarks on Saturday, February 17, 2018.  

Bar Parties with Live Music
Many lake area bars are hosting incredible New Year's Eve parties with bands or DJs rocking everyone into 2018. Wherever you are spending the holiday, you'll be able to find fun parties just like the ones being thrown around here. 

The biggest difference is that on New Year's Eve, you'll most likely pick one place with one band and stay there all night long. When you join us for the Mardi Gras Pub Crawl, our busses will be taking you to multiple bars and restaurants throughout the event with a different incredible musician performing at each one! New Year's Eve will be a nice warm-up, but when you get to the pub crawl, be ready to party harder than you've ever partied before! 

Don't Drink and Drive
This is an important statement, no matter what day of the year it is. For New Year's Eve, you'll need to plan to "stay where you play," so that you don't have to get in the car at the end of the night if you're planning to drink. A couple of other options are to bring along a friend that you trust to stay sober, or arrange to either call a cab, uber, or rent a driver for the evening. 

Not the case at our pub crawl in February! You can still do all of those things if you like, but they aren't necessary because transportation for the evening is included with the $10 wristband that will get you into all of the bars and restaurants participating in the crawl. As a matter of fact, if you stay at one of the hotels along the pub crawl route (check our website for an updated list,) the pub crawl busses will even pick you up and drop you off there!

Creative Cocktails
New Year's Eve is a time to raise a glass and toast the things that happened in the past year as well as your expectations for the coming year. (Be sure to raise a glass to the amazing time you'll be having at our 2018 Mardi Gras Pub Crawl!) The preferred drink of choice, at least at midnight, is usually champagne. 

Mardi Gras has quite a few delicious cocktails associated with it, the most famous probably being the classic Hurricane. This delicious on-the-rocks rum drink is fairly similar to the frozen Rum Runner that is extremely popular around the lake area during the summer. No matter what your favorite beverage is, you'll be able to order it from the incredible bartenders at each of the stops on the Lake of the Ozarks Mardi Gras Pub Crawl. 

While you're out enjoying your end-of-the-year celebration this weekend, keep in mind how exciting it's going to be in less than a couple of months when you're at the Lake of the Ozarks Mardi Gras Pub Crawl! Get the date - Saturday, February 17 - on your new 2018 calendar right away, and then start making plans to be here for another year of pub crawling fun!
