Last year the city of Westlake, Louisiana put on its inaugural West Fest. It was so successful that it is back for another year. West Fest is coming your way in October 2024. We spoke with Mike Brignac with the city of Westlake and the Mayor of Westlake Hal McMillin who broke the news.

Mayor McMillin and the city council are excited to bring this festival back again this year to the Westlake and Southwest Louisiana area where you can bring the entire family. The festival will feature live music, eight food trucks, bounce houses, and over 40 arts and crafts vendors.
