Regions Arena Delayed for Mardi Gras | Birmingham News

The Regions Arena in Mobile won’t be ready for Mardi Gras 2027 after all—thanks to over 100 rainy days and storms that derailed the schedule. Originally slated for January 2027, the opening is now pushed to spring 2027. Mayor Spiro Cheriogotis confirmed the delay, stressing that rushing the debut would compromise quality and extend completion. Built since May 2025, this 10,000-seat venue will host professional hockey and major live events, with the goal of delivering a flawless first impression. While disappointing for parade fans, the priority remains getting it right—not just on time. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
