EVENT SPOTLIGHT 2006 Festival International De Louisiane

Festival International de Louisiane in Lafayette Louisiana is truly a community event drawing together approximately 1,000 volunteers from all segments of the community to work together to celebrate both Lafayette's diversity and the common human experience. Through the arts presented and the joint efforts to produce it, the festival contributes to the spirit of community that is so unique to the Acadiana region.

The annual 5-day festival is held during the last full week of April. Historic downtown Lafayette, Louisiana, is transformed into an entertainment complex featuring six music stages, food court areas, street musicians and animators, arts and crafts boutiques, art galleries, beverage stands, cultural workshops, international cooking demonstrations and a world music store.
