MobTown Mural Festival

MobTown Mural Festival

September 12th, 2026 - September 13th, 2026

Mobile

The public is invited to watch live mural paintings on both walls as well as three-dimensional 4’x4’ cubes located throughout downtown Mobile.

As Mobile's first large-scale mural festival, the event will transform walls, public spaces and unexpected locations into dynamic works of art, creating a lasting visual legacy while showcasing the city's growing creative community. Throughout the weekend, residents and visitors will have the opportunity to watch artists at work, meet muralists and explore Mobile through a new artistic lens.

The festival will feature a curated roster of artists selected for their creativity, technical skill and ability to create site-specific works that reflect the culture, history and spirit of Mobile. In addition to permanent wall murals, the festival will include large movable murals that will be strategically placed through the downtown area.
