2025 Eunice, Louisiana’s Mardi Gras Festival Massive Music Lineup

Mardi Gras is now in full swing and more and more Louisiana towns are announcing their Mardi Gras festivals, events, parades, and chicken runs going on in South Louisiana.

If you are not from Louisiana, you have to understand that Mardi Gras is the second biggest holiday next to Christmas all year in the state. In 2025, we will see a longer carnival season than we did last year. Mardi Gras got underway last night with 12th night and the season will run to March 4th, 2025 this year culminating with huge parades the day of Mardi Gras.

There will be chicken runs in small Cajun towns all over Southwest Louisiana, parades, gumbo cookoffs, Mardi Gras balls galore, and Mardi Gras festivals.

One such festival takes place in a Louisiana town known for its Mardi Gras celebrations. The town of Eunice, Louisiana is known for a multi-day festival bringing in thousands and thousands of people and features the who's who of Louisiana Cajun, Swamp Pop, Zydeco, and country music live in the middle of the downtown area.

The 2025 Eunice Cajun Mardi Gras Festival will take place starting Friday, February 28th, and wrapping up on Mardi Gras Day, Tuesday, March 4th, 2025. This five-day event will feature live music from the morning to the wee hours of the evening on multiple stages throughout downtown Eunice.
