Las Vegas Carnaval International – Mardi Gras was started in 2007 by Mr. Freddy Chavez, President of Residentes Bolivianos de Las Vegas and Las Vegas Carnaval International-Mardi Gras.

Chavez’ vision was to develop the annual event from a small fledgling celebration, welcoming more countries to participate each year.

“We see this opportunity to embrace the multicultural diversity of America and show the world the brightest and most beautiful from each culture,” said Chavez. “It is also our dream to see this Carnaval-Mardi Gras become one of the best ten Carnaval-Mardi Gras’ in the world and we hope it will become a large annual celebration in Las Vegas.”
