Raising Cane’s Partners with New Orleans Artist “BMIKE” to Bring the Spirit of Mardi Gras to Life

As a Louisiana-based Company, Mardi Gras runs deep in our roots. To celebrate this year’s Carnival season, Raising Cane’s partnered with Brandan “BMIKE” Odums to bring the spirit of Mardi Gras to life throughout our Restaurants.

BMIKE is a New Orleans-based visual artist who transforms public spaces into powerful platforms for history and imagination. For our 2026 Mardi Gras Campaign, Odums’ custom artwork was showcased as the main design element in select Raising Cane’s Restaurants.

His Cane’s-inspired mural captured the colors, unity and beads that come with the Mardi Gras season and added a touch of Cane’s, including our iconic red cup, Cane III’s paw and Raising Cane’s Founder and Owner Todd Graves featured on a Doubloon. The mural debuted at one of our Restaurants in Metairie, Louisiana, and was then turned into poster-sized prints for Crew and Customers.

Throughout the campaign, Odums stopped at several Restaurants in the New Orleans area for artist meet-and-greets where he connected with the Community and signed posters for fans.

As another way to give back to the Community, we launched our Doubloon program for the fifth year in participating Restaurants, giving Customers the chance to buy a Cane’s Sauce Doubloon for $1 in exchange for a free Cane’s Sauce with every purchase through April 3rd.

All proceeds from our Doubloon program will go to Eternal Seeds, a nonprofit organization founded by BMIKE that helps equip emerging artists with the tools to grow into leaders and visionaries who can shape a more creative and equitable world. Find a Raising Cane’s near you, and let us help you bring the spirit of every holiday to life!
