Corpus Christi, Texas – February 11, 2025 – Barefoot Mardi Gras is making its highly anticipated return to Corpus Christi with an exciting new addition—the Barefoot Mardi Gras Savings Pass.

“We’re thrilled to partner with the Padre Island Business Association to introduce the Barefoot Mardi Gras Savings Pass, creating even more opportunities for visitors to explore beyond the shore and experience all that Padre Island has to offer,” said Meredith Darden, Chief Operating Officer and Interim CEO at Visit Corpus Christi. “This initiative not only enhances the visitor experience but also drives meaningful support to our local businesses, ensuring that the economic impact of events like Barefoot Mardi Gras extends throughout the community.”
From February 7 through March 2, 2025, visitors and locals alike can enjoy the festivities, explore the island, and take advantage of special deals, all while celebrating Mardi Gras in true Gulf Coast Capital fashion—by supporting local businesses.
“The Barefoot Mardi Gras Savings Pass is a new feature added this season and the local businesses on Padre Island are so excited to participate! This Pass is a collaborative effort of our island businesses coming together in one platform to provide special discounts and offers to both locals and visitors alike. The off-season months can be a challenge, and this is a great way for us to help them all continue to thrive. We’re so thankful to Visit Corpus Christi for helping the Padre Island Business Association support our Padre Island economy through this program,” said Stephanie Hesch, President of the Padre Island Business Association.
