Louisiana Mosquito Festival

On Saturday, October 25, support local firemen and celebrate Louisiana’s unofficial state bird, the mosquito, at the Louisiana Mosquito Festival. This inaugural event takes place at Landon Pitre Memorial Park in Cankton and will feature live music from talented local musicians, a delicious cook-off, blood drive, silent auction, vendors and children’s activities.

Headlining the event will be Richard LeBeouf, but you can also catch performances by Rory Suire & Closing Time, Caramel Cowboy Raikwon Green, Honky Tonk Mike Broussard, Dylan Aucoin, and Hunter Courville & Cajun Fever.

Children’s activities include buzz competitions, coloring pages, mosquito wrangling as well as fun jumps, and arts & crafts.

Come on out and have a good time!
