Summer 2024
91st Annual Alabama Deep Sea Fishing Rodeo
The Alabama Deep Sea Fishing Rodeo takes place on Dauphin Island and is the largest fishing tournament in the world. Founded in 1929, the rodeo and associated activities now attract over 4,000 anglers and 75,000 spectators. The three-day event features 33 categories with prizes awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in all categories.
Find your muse
The oldest city in Alabama and one of the oldest on the Gulf Coast, Mobile has always been able to offer visitors exciting, entertaining and educational experiences year-round. Our historic, coastal town is filled with museums featuring art, Mardi Gras, history, maritime and more. You name it, Mobile probably has a museum for it.
LoDa Art Walk
Every second weekend of the month, on Friday from 6 to 9 p.m., downtown Mobile comes alive during ArtWalk! Take in the latest in local art, music, food and culture. Grab a drink or beignets and browse local galleries, public spaces and pop-up markets. ArtWalk celebrates Mobile's diversity and is the optimal way to "do as the locals do" while getting a taste, ear- and eye-full of all things funky and charming.
Roll Mobile 2024
In Mobile, we always let the good times roll. Skate around Bienville Square every second Friday night from May until October. Free skate rentals will be available for the first 50 guests. Cue the lights and enjoy songs from a live DJ!
Eco-friendly experiences
Sail into the Summer! Find a tour of the Mobile-Tensaw Delta and immerse yourself in "America's Amazon." Historic Blakeley State Park offers the Delta Discovery Tour or kick back and relax during a sunset cruise. Airboat Express will take you up close and personal on one of their airboat tours in the harder-to-reach parts of the Delta. If entertainment and dining are more your speed, dinner and dancing aboard the Perdido Queen paddle boat is a must!
Eat your heart out
In Mobile, the catch of the day may be fish, shrimp, crabs or oysters and you can guarantee it's Gulf-to-table fresh. Our local chefs are celebrated for their eclectic takes on cuisine, whether it's old-school, southern contemporary or the family secret BBQ recipe. Dine on our porches, balconies and courtyards where there’s truly something unique around every table.
