2023 Crowley Rice Festival Set For Oct. 19-21 — Entertainment Lineup
The 84th annual International Rice Festival or as most people know it the Crowley Rice Festival is coming your way this weekend beginning on Thursday, October 19th.
The International Rice Festival, held annually every third full weekend in October, is one of Louisiana's oldest and largest agricultural festivals. The first festival was held on October 5, 1937, as the National Rice Festival; it was renamed the "International Rice Festival" in 1946 when the festival was resumed after a hiatus during World War II (1942–1945).
The celebration is held to honor the rice industry and its hardworking farmers. It has brought attention to the importance of rice as a food and emphasizes its place in the world.
The festival is filled with three days full of local, regional, and national entertainment on two different stages. That's TWICE THE FUN! They have two separate stages with live music on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights.
Starting on Thursday, October 19th, and running through Saturday, October 21st, you will have the opportunity to see 20 different artists perform live.
