For those nights when you and your friends want to venture out but don't want to have to deal with uppity attitudes, thankfully there's a place like the Midtown Pub. This fun nightlife hangout features pool tables, lots of comfortable tables and two huge TVs. The charm and laid-back vibe of the Midtown Pub make it a favorite of everyone from young professionals to old timers to college students. And, it doesn't hurt that the bar stays open from 12 noon to the wee hours of the morning.

Mardi Gras in Mobile takes place over the course of two and a half weeks in February. The city has been recognized as the site of the first ever Mardi Gras celebration in 1703, well before it took place in New Orleans. To continue the tradition of those festivities that were established long ago, many locals and visitors make plans to enjoy the yearly Mardi Gras in Mobile. The festival attracts well over a million people who come to enjoy the parade, masks, the “throws” of beads, as well as all the tastes, sights and sounds that make this party one that should not be missed.
