Mobile, Alabama is charged with attracting visitors and conventions to the Mobile area to experience and enjoy our history, culture, and attractions in order to further strengthen Mobile’s image as a national destination, increasing economic stability and enhancing the region’s quality of life. When you’re a 300-year-old city there is always something to celebrate. In fact, in Mobile we celebrate you being in our city with events almost every weekend!
Mobile’s downtown continues to be the heartbeat of the destination with an electric cuisine scene, museums, art galleries, nightlife, shopping, concerts, and waterfront eco-tours from Cooper Riverside Park – all just steps from one another. A walkable city that prides itself on celebrating … are you on your way yet?

Once called the Paris of the South, Mobile has long been the cultural center of the Gulf Coast and you’ll find an authentic experience found nowhere else in the southern United States. The twelfth busiest port in the country, Mobile is the social, economic and creative hub of the entire Gulf Coast – our colorful downtown has drawn people for centuries. Many large businesses are headquartered in downtown Mobile right next to quaint, locally-owned art galleries, shops, restaurants and bars. A fusion of economic development, innovation and old world charm!
