Mardi Gras

Laissez les bons temps rouler, Dixon—The Big Easy is coming to town!
Get ready, because in just FIVE DAYS, we’re throwing a Mardi GRAS celebration like Dixon’s never seen before—and it’s all for a great cause!
GRAS = Granny Rose Animal Shelter, and this is our very first Mardi Gras celebration to benefit the animals we love!
Join us Downtown Dixon at the Bean Blossom
Saturday, May 17th | 4–9 PM
What’s on tap?
• Two LIVE New Orleans-style blues & jazz bands
• Food trucks to feed your soul
• Beads for our Breeds—yes, we’re slingin’ beads all night long
• Raffles & baskets valued at $300–$900+
• Vendors, drinks, and good vibes all around!
This isn’t just a party—it’s a celebration of community, compassion, and saving lives, Big Easy style.
So grab your masks, feathers, and that Mardi Gras spirit—because we’re about to bring Bourbon Street to the BeanBlossom!
All proceeds benefit the amazing animals at Granny Rose Animal Shelter.
