Downtown → Soulard → Anheuser-Busch Brewery

Free Admission

The crown jewel of Soulard Mardi Gras. Floats. Beads. Music. Costumes. Tens of thousands of people lining the streets. The Bud Light Grand Parade rolls from near Busch Stadium, through Downtown South and the streets of Soulard with all the color, chaos, and carnival energy you could possibly ask for, before ending at the Anheuser-Busch Brewery – home to where your beer was born.

Bud Light Party Tent

You shouldn’t have to choose between being directly on the parade route, warming up from the cold, live entertainment, a restroom without a line, and being able to grab a drink whenever you need another. 

That’s why the all-inclusive Bud Light Party Tent is the place to be for 8+ hours of beer, beats, bands, and booze in the climate-controlled tent.
