Get ready to party hearty, Creole-style, as the 14th Annual Bayou City Cajun Fest cooks up big fun at Traders Village for two days, Saturday and Sunday, April 4 & 5.

Free live, toe-tapping Cajun and Zydeco music will be performed all weekend. Opening on Saturday at 11:00 am will be Tommy Dardar, with the Zydeco Diva, Lady D, then at 2:30 pm CajuNation, will perform its traditional-style of Cajun music. On Sunday at 11:00 am Houston’s own Cajun rock favorites, Bayou Roux, will open and the Diva returns to perform throughout the day. Then at 2:30 pm “Louisiana’s Rockin’ Fiddler” Waylon Thibodeaux will rock partiers with his high-energy Bayou City performance.
Authentic Cajun foods will be freshly prepared and served by the French Quarter Market & Grill Restaurant, featuring traditional favorites such as Crawfish Etouffee, Red Beans, Rice and Sausage, Fried Boudin Balls, Sausage Po-boys, Fried Alligator, and thousands of pounds of spicy boiled crawfish. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Houston Heritage Cajun French Music Association of Louisiana, a not-for-profit organization created to preserve Cajun culture. They will be serving Hot Gumbo and Boudin.
It's an event that can't be missed. Crazy Cajun music, hot dancing, spicy foods and beads…beads…beads guarantee there'll be 'Big Fun on the Bayou' at Traders Village...the Gulf Coast's largest market and entertainment complex, with over 2,000 dealers, rides, fun foods, plus the Cajun Fest await everyone, April 4th & 5th from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Admission is FREE and parking is only $3.00.
