ABOUT US...

Celtic Bayou Festival focuses on preserving and celebrating all aspects of Irish, Irish American and other Celtic cultures while instilling an appreciation of this heritage in current and future generations. An annual, family friendly event, Celtic Bayou Festival is held in the heart of Cajun country and is fun for both young and old…no matter which culture you hail from! With musical performances by traditional Celtic bands from both close to home and around the world, we also have unique events such as the Lenten Crawfish Boil, Guinness Cook-Off Competition, Bailey’s Bake-Off Competition, Jameson Pub Crawl, a Genealogy tent for Acadiana people to trace their Celtic roots, and more. Join us for some good ole craic et laissez les bon temps rouler!
