If you describe your relationship with your significant other as “a classic” or “time-tested,” then you will surely appreciate those exact same qualities when you enjoy a romantic date at the Bragg-Mitchell Mansion. This impressive structure was built in 1855 and is one of the most elegant structures of its kind on the Gulf Coast. There are twenty rooms here, and among the finely decorated interior you will marvel at double parlors, a lavish dining room and grounds that are meticulously landscaped with Mobile's signature oak trees and azaleas.
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.
The Mobile BayBears are a minor league baseball team that plays in the Southern League. The sports team is the Double-A affiliate of the Arizona Diamondbacks major league club. The team plays its home games at Hank Aaron Stadium.
The lush sweeping sounds of violins and cellos will draw you in to each and every aspect of the many dramatic and sweeping performances of the Mobile Symphony. Not only does the group present various classics from the world's most loved composers, but they also stretch out to present special engagements and entertainment. For example, a recent show was a presentation of the Music of Pink Floyd. The symphony also raises funds for the continuance of music education and offers special events and camps for aspiring musicians.
