One of Acadiana's most delicious events has added some lagniappe this year. The 12th annual Boudin Cook-Off will be held on Saturday, October 19th from 10:00 am - 4:00 pm at Parc International in downtown Lafayette. And brand new this year, festivities will include the inaugural Bacon Fest. Two festivals in one day, with lots of family friendly activities, live music, and food for everyone to enjoy.

Applications are currently being taken to participate as a team, and entry forms are available here.

Admission is free, and activities include games for the kids, vendor boots, boudin ball eating contest, free ice cream sandwiches, and entertainment by The Babineaux Sisters, Alligator Blue, and The Specklers. A fun way to celebrate some of our favorite foods here in Acadiana!
