With over
300 years of history, Mobile is one of America's oldest
port cities. Six flags have flown over the city and
influences from all who have settled in Mobile are evident
in the cuisine, architecture, and culture. Mobile is
considered the home of the Mardi Gras in the United
States. Originally brought from France in 1704, Mobile
celebrates it's major event two weeks prior to Lent.
In addition to the Mardi Gras, Mobile's events include
the only NFL sanctioned post-season football games,
America's Junior Miss competition, and BayFest brings
music to the streets during October.
