We love our festivals here in Acadiana, and of course our annual Festival International de Louisiane is right around the corner! Put April 23-27 on your calendar, and carve out a little time before that for some special festival events leading up to the kickoff! The official festival kick off concert will be held on April 21, starring Dick Dale and Dege Legg at Blue Moon Saloon, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the festival.

The opening night entertainment for Wednesday, April 23 will feature Geno Delafose and French Rockin' Boogie, and Keith Frank and the Soileau Zydeco Band - wowser!

For more details on one of Lafayette's most unique festivals, check out the official Festival International de Louisiane website, and we'll see ya'll in April in downtown Lafayette!
