Sunsets get more dazzling as summer shifts into fall, and Mobile holds onto that late-season glow. Beneath those skies, several special events will fill the city with music and color over the next two months, painting a picture-perfect end-of-summer trip.

Plus, the Port City is a straight shot down I-65 South from Birmingham, making it easily accessible to close out the season in an island state of mind, right here in Alabama.

Read on for August and September happenings, including Tiki Week, a major new exhibit honoring hometown music legend Jimmy Buffett—and, just for a few more splashes of color, a brand new mural festival.
