Festival des Fleurs de Louisiane
returns April 5th, 2025!

Part celebration of spring's arrival, part fundraiser for UL Lafayette's Ira Nelson Horticulture Center, and part educational outreach and resource for the enhancement of horticulture in Acadiana, Festival des Fleurs de Louisiane has been going strong for over 30 years!

Over 100 expected gardening-related vendors provide the show's main attraction. Festival-goers discover a wealth of resources and activities as local gardening societies host displays and informational kiosks that will share gardening techniques with attendees. Food trucks serve snacks, snow cones, and coffee, so bring the family and make a day of it!
