The Cajun-Creole Events Schedule has been updated for 2007!!

If you know of a Cajun themed event in your area, why not post it here, in our Cajun Forum, so that everyone can hear about it? Be sure to post the event name, date, city/state, cost (if known), event website address, and any additional information that might be helpful to prospective attendees.

In addition to posting events here in our Forum, our Cajun and Creole Site now has an events calendar as well.

Laissez le bon temps rouler!

I stumbled upon this event on the Internet -- looks like fun.

May 25 � 28 2006: Downtown Shreveport, Louisiana, Mudbug Madness. This festival began in 1984 to 'prove' to the rest of Louisiana that Shreveport's culture and roots are part of the Bayou State and NOT Texas, as some folks believe!

Held in the Festival Plaza in downtown Shreveport, this event is FREE for kids under 12 and FREE to everyone before 6:00PM. After 6:00 on Thurs. it is $1.00 and Fri. it is $3.00. Sat & Sun. all day is only $3.00! Now that is a bargain. Cajun, Zydeco, Blues and Jazz artists will entertain you while you eat and have fun. Check out their website for directions, shuttle info, and events schedule.

Hi Everyone! How is your summer going?

I just posted some upcoming events on the Cajun/Creole Site. There are 2 in No. California (Bay Area) and 2 in the UK.

If you have a favorite event in your area, you can post it here, in our forum, or email it to me and I'll include it on the Cajun/Creole website.

Enjoy!
