Festival International has announced plans for 2021.
Organizers says that after several months of exploring ways to safely create the event for the community, the Festival team is announcing their plans for pivoting the 2021 event in a way that continues to celebrate the local and international music, arts, food and cultures that the event is known for.
They say it will not be possible to produce Festival International de Louisiane in its usual format this Spring. The final decision is to take the 2020 Virtual Fest structure to the next level by combining live / immersive experiences in Downtown Lafayette, plus community-centered components.
