Best Answer

In the USA, Mardi Gras is celebrated in Mobile Alabama, and throughout the west coast of Florida, especially in the Northwest Florida area. Mobile is actually the place where parades became official organized events first, and where the celebration of the season from 12th night to Fat Tuesday originated. Mobile was the capital of the French province and held masked balls and parades in the 18th century.
