Sweet Dough Pie Festival

Celebrate the history of Grand Coteau and a traditional Louisiana treat called the sweet dough pie. Every year, pastry chefs and home cooks vie to be the best in the sweet dough pie contest where the public is the judge. A large variety of pies are available for purchase. Some favorites include fig, custard, lemon, blackberry, and other local, seasonal ingredients. Browse through vendors with art, handmade items, flowers and herbs, custom furniture, indoor and outdoor decor, and more.

There will be three bands performing throughout the day with performances by Sheryl Cormier & the Cajun Sounds, Next Gen Zydeco, Step Rideau & the Zydeco Outlaws + D.J. Hawk

The Sweet Dough Pie Festival is the last Saturday of October. For information on the sweet dough contest, becoming a vendor or visiting the festival call 337.331.6352. This is a free event, but parking is $5.
