The Roosevelt Transforms for Mardi Gras

NEW ORLEANS (press release) – As Carnival season kicks into gear, The Roosevelt New Orleans, A Waldorf Astoria Hotel, has transitioned from red and green into purple, green and gold in celebration of Mardi Gras. Beyond the must-have Instagram backdrop for Carnival season with its grand lobby illuminated in Mardi Gras colors, The Roosevelt New Orleans is an ideal spot for revelers who want to refuel, recover and then revel some more.

FESTIVE FOOD AND DRINKS 
The Fountain Lounge is adding a touch of Fat Tuesday flair to its popular Fried Chicken Mondays featuring perfectly crisp fried chicken. The restaurant will offer fried chicken to-go for $20 per box on Feb. 3 and 4 as well as the 10th, 11th and 13th. The popular dish is the ideal complement to a house party or a parade route gathering. Reserve your pickup time now!

The Roosevelt’s famed Sazerac Bar is a destination all its own, and its Mardi Gras cocktails make it an especially popular spot during Carnival season. Toast to the celebrations with the new Champagne Lady, a sparkling wine-focused cocktail with St. Germaine and elderflower liqueur, indulgently adorned with edible glitter to add some shimmer for the season. Revelers can also indulge in a Frozen French 75 for the parades.

GLITZ AND GLAMOUR 
Perfect for make-up touchups or thematic makeup, the Waldorf Astoria Spa will offer a Pop-up Makeup Bar in the lobby with estheticians ready to customize Mardi Gras looks.
