January 23 - January 24
GAMGA Gala: German American Mardi Gras in Las Vegas 🎭🍻
The GAMGA Gala is the premier—and only—event of the German American Mardi Gras Association, celebrating the rich traditions of Karneval, Fasching, Fastnacht, and Mardi Gras. Held annually in early January in Las Vegas, this two-day gala brings together nearly 1,000 attendees from across North America and beyond. 🇩🇪🇺🇸
Hosted in a Las Vegas hotel ballroom, the event features live performances, ballroom dancing, a live band and DJ, plus a festive mix of German and American food and beer. Friday kicks off with playful skits, show dances, and colorful Karneval attire, while Saturday delivers a more formal celebration with uniformed groups, Prinzenpaare, and traditional Garde dances. ✨💃
