My wife and I are not followers of the Mobile Mardi Gras, but we found this museum to be very interesting. The robes they make for the king and queen are incredible. Worth a stop.

As someone who knows nothing about Mardi Gras I found the visit very informative! Like most people I associated Mardi Gras with New Orleans! I did not know that it originated in Mobile. Be sure to take the escorted tour.

What a wonderful surprise! There are so many interesting exhibits of the Carnival Season in Mobile where Mardi Gras began. Beautiful gowns, etc & stories to match. You won’ be disappointed!

I loved the many beautiful Mardi Gras dresses and trains. The trains were unbelievably long and gorgeous.

Boy, I learned a lot about the history of Mardi Gras here, and I loved seeing all the fabulous, colorful costumes. Definitely worth a visit!
