Venice Beach 2026 Mardi Gras Photos

One of the greatest things about Venice is its weirdness. The boardwalk in particular is a diverse and quirky melting pot that turns everything cinematic — even the chaos.

The 2026 Mardi Gras parade rolled through today like a glittering tide, washing over tourists, skaters, artists and vendors. It was loose, improvised, and completely alive. Check out the view through my lens and enjoy the photos I captured of today's Mardi Gras magic.
