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.

Whether it's a big name music act, a touring Broadway production or a local theater presentation, they are all events that find a home on the stage at Mobile's Saenger Theatre. This entertainment venue makes the best use of its classic layout and design to ensure that there isn't a bad seat in the house. The building's amazing acoustics are accentuated by the excellent sound system which in turn is enhanced by the dazzling display of lights that make every performance come alive.
