Mardi Gras is not a city. It is a French term that means Fat Tuesday. It refers to the day before Ash Wednesday, the first day in the Christian period of Lent, the 40 days before Easter. It is now used for the period of time between the day of Epiphany and Ash Wednesday. Epiphany is the day the Wise Men or Magi came to visit the baby Jesus after he was born. It comes 12 days after Christmas. Other places, such as Mobile, Alabama, also celebrate Mardi Gras.
