Mardi Gras 2022 in Mobile: Live coverage

MOBILE, Ala. (WKRG) — Mardi Gras rolled back into Mobile in 2022 after the COVID-19 pandemic shut down the city’s famous parades. We’ve been live at events throughout the Mardi Gras season, and we’re live on Tuesday with the biggest parades of all.

It’s a busy day in downtown Mobile. The Order of Athena Parade kicks off at 10:30 a.m. Parades continue through the afternoon with the 6 p.m. Order of Myths Parade capping off the festivities.
