Festival of Flowers returns to Cathedral Square in March
Join us March 8-10 to give back to our healthcare community and celebrate those who have made their mark in Mobile.
The award-winning Festival of Flowers will celebrate its 31st year by proudly showcasing life-sized living sculptures created by acclaimed florists, artists, and garden designers.
These artists will vie for bragging rights for the Festival of Flowers People's Choice Award by highlighting the theme “Make Your Mark.” Visitors can view the elaborate plant creations in downtown Mobile’s Cathedral Square and cast their vote via QR code or web link. Donation is required for entry.
Special events include a Saturday morning Exotic Car Show, Buds and Brews, and self-guided tours of area gardens. On Sunday, visitors can bring a furry friend to enjoy the show during Welcome All Wags from 3 to 5 p.m.
Join us to give back to our healthcare community and celebrate those who have made their mark in Mobile. Festival proceeds will be used to purchase advanced electrocardiogram (EKG) equipment for the USA Health Providence Cardiac Care Unit.
