2023 Le Festival de Mardi Gras a Lafayette Music Lineup Released

We are less than a month away from Fat Tuesday and of course, we've still got plenty of parades, chicken runs, Mardi Gras balls, and many other festivities leading up to the big day.

One of the biggest celebrations in all of Acadiana is Le Festival de Mardi Gras a Lafayette at Cajun Field and we're happy to announce that the fun will be returning.

The festivities will kick off on Friday, February 17 with the new Kick-Off Parade, which will roll at 6:30 pm.

Of course, the midway will return with lots of great rides, games and carnival food.

Ride all-day wristbands will be available for purchase for $30 on the following dates and times:

• Friday, February 17: 5:00 pm - 11:00 pm
• Sunday, February 19: 1:00 pm - 11:00 pm
• Monday, February 20: 12:00 pm - 6:00 pm

In addition to the main soundstage, there will also be a music and food tent with live music. It opens at 1:00 pm with live music, food and drink until 6:00 pm. It will remain open through the night with food and drinks.

While the tent music line-up has not been announced yet, we do have the complete Main Soundstage line-up for all the nights of the festival.
