Tourists needn’t look at the yearly calendar to book tickets and hotels in Lafayette – all thanks to its round the year fun activities – unless, of course, you are seeking a very particular holiday experience. The thing is that the city is a massive holiday destination and there is a whole lot going on in whatever month you plan your vacations. However for most of the visitors, fall is the best season when the festival season kicks into high gear and promise the guests utmost fun, frolic and entertainment.
During the fall season, every corner of the city participates in the various festivals and believe it; there as many fall festivals as there are varieties of Louisiana po'boys. The city hosts very distinct festivals which you won’t find happening in any other corner of the world. A special festival is dedicated to those in love with sandwiches—the Oak Street Po-Boy Festival that is held in the month of November. There are some other great fall festivals too that are completely dedicated to the city scrumptious food. One such is the Meat Pie Festival in mid-September that is hosted in very popular historic downtown next to Cane River Lake.
Still hungry? Well, head to LaPlace for the tempting Andouille Festival, Crowley for the Rice Festival and Bridge City for the Gumbo Festival. And the best part is that all these festivals are held in the month of October, so you do not have to make separate Lafayette hotel reservations. You just can’t afford to miss the Harvest Festival held on False River if you are in love with pecans. This free festival features live music by national and regional artisans.
Throughout the fall, check out few other interesting festivals too such as the Jim Bowie Festival in Vidalia where the actors from different genres re-enact the renowned fight of Bowie knife. Another compelling festival is the Red River Revel which is north Louisiana's largest arts festival that is held in the Shreveport. Each year, hordes of musicians draw people to the bayou in order to spread some awareness about the Louisiana's disappearing wetlands.
