The Mardi Gras party is about to get started in the Borderland with several events taking place today.

One of the big ones will be out at the Cincinnati entertainment district.

Crews were putting the finishing touches at it earlier today.

Keep in mind that Cincinnati will be blocked off in that area.

Before you head out, a friendly reminder not to drink and drive.

The El Paso County Sheriff’s Office will be conducting increased DWI patrols during Fat Tuesday.
