Lake Charles, LA [KNGT-FM] - New year means new festival season for the great state of Louisiana. If you are from here, then you know that Louisiana is known for its festivals, its food, and the live entertainment that comes with a weekend festival.

In Louisiana, we have a festival for just about anything that swims in the water, crawls on land, or is about the food we are known for in the bayou state. There are tons of festivals in Louisiana every year, with themes that reflect what we were talking about. To name a few, check out these below.
