Get Ready for a "Rebelution": Pitbull Takes Center Stage at Universal Orlando Resort's Mardi Gras

The Biggest Mardi Gras Party Outside of New Orleans Continues Saturday, February 26

This Saturday night, Pitbull, also known as “Mr. 305,” will perform his electrifying hits at Universal Orlando Resort’s Mardi Gras celebration.  The Latin star will rock the Music Plaza stage at Universal Studios Florida with his energetic style and music.

Pitbull’s hit album, “Rebelution” features the international hit song “I Know You Want Me (Calle Ocho),” which peaked at # 2 on Billboard’s Hot 100 and owned a spot in the top 10 charts in the U.K. , Canada , Italy , and The Netherlands. Other hits include “Krazy” and “Hotel Room Service,” which reached # 9 on the Hot 100. His most recent hit, “Hey Baby (Drop it on the Floor),” reached #7 on Billboard’s Top 100. The Cuban-American rapper is part of an eclectic Mardi Gras concert line-up that features some of the biggest names in Rock, Country, Pop and R&B.

At Universal Orlando’s Mardi Gras, nationally renowned musical acts combine with an authentic Mardi Gras parade, dozens of colorfully costumed performers, authentic Cajun cooking, and hand-picked New Orleans bands to capture the look, feel and fun of New Orleans – all inside Universal Studios Florida. This year’s ultimate street party runs every Saturday and other select nights through April 23 and is included in regular admission to Universal Studios Florida.
