Gonzales Jambalaya Festival moving to new location for 2025 celebration
Oct 22, 2024
GONZALES - The Jambalaya Festival will be at a new venue starting next year. "After decades of hosting successful festivals in the heart of Gonzales, on South Irma Boulevard, the time has come to consider a move for the Jambalaya Festival," festival organizers said in a social post made Tuesday morning. Starting in 2025, the festival will be held at the Lamar Dixon Expo Center. "For years, we have gotten feedback from members of the community, carnival-goers, and spectators at the cook-off, about parking issues, the weather/heat in late May, and the logistical layout of the festival grounds being “split” on both sides of Irma Blvd. Your feedback has not fallen on deaf ears, and we are excited to see how this move will help our festival grow into what we hope becomes the “best festival experience” in Louisiana!"The next Jambalaya Festival will be held May 23 through 25 at the new location. Permalink| Comments
