Mardi Gras Park.

Mardi Gras Park

Plenty of street parking around Mardi Gras Park. Big, open grassy area in the middle for kids to run around. Statues are bright and fun. Nice photo op.

Gaudy Mardi Gras Statues

Gaudy indeed! These sculptures are frightening! Bring some shade when touring the park, as there is little of it to be found. The sculptures were not made by Mobile artists (they were brought in from New Orleans), so do not judge that art community based on their quality!
