Organizers of MoonPie Over Mobile, the distinctive New Year’s Eve celebration in which a giant illuminated MoonPie is lowered to count down the end of one year and the arrival of another, have called off the event closing out 2020.
“We love MoonPie Over Mobile, but not as much as we love our community,” said a statement released late Wednesday afternoon. “Given the current surge in COVID-19 cases in our community and Governor Kay Ivey’s extension of the statewide Safer at Home Order, Events Mobile has decided to cancel the organized activities for New Year’s Eve 2020.”
