Run...New Orleans Mardi Gras Marathon
New Orleans Mardi Gras Marathon Health & Fitness Expo

Health and Fitness Expo

The 45th running of the New Orleans Mardi Gras Marathon will take place on perhaps the most beautiful course of it's long and storied history. Not to be outdone, the Health and Fitness Expo promises to be better than ever! Last year saw record growth for the event with over 6,000 registrants and close to 15,000 expo attendees. This year our expo will be even bigger!

Take part in this rare opportunity to showcase your product or service to an affluent and health-conscious market. All participants must visit the Health and Fitness Expo to pick up their race packet, so the opportunities are tremendous. Space is limited, and has sold out every year since Katrina!

If you are interesting in including flyers, product samples, or other promotional materials in the race packets which will be distributed to every registered participant contact us for further details.
