Various artists and bands will take the stage at one of seven venues throughout Downtown Lafayette through Sunday evening.

Whether looking for Cajun, Zydeco, or bands from across the globe, you will find something you love in Downtown Louisiana.

One of the biggest things guests need to know is that you can park at Cajun Field and ride the shuttle into Downtown Lafayette, It will cost $15 per car, and officials there will only take debit or credit cards for payment. The shuttles will run every fifteen minutes until the end of performances each night.

A reminder for anyone going for all of this free fun, officials with Festival International ask that you not bring your furry friends to the events. No pets are allowed at Festival because of the safety issue.
