More than 40 Parades roll through Downtown Mobile.
Mardi Gras celebrations begin in the weeks before Fat Tuesday. Elaborate themed floats manned by masked mystic societies, mounted police and marching bands wind through downtown Mobile and surrounding areas, entertaining nearly a million revelers each year. The Carnival is a family-friendly time of parties, balls, parades and revelry. Find your spot and get ready to catch Moon Pies, beads and trinkets.
