I am ready for some live music and carnival fun! Get ready New Iberia because El Festival Español de Nueva Iberia is getting under way. There are so many things happening this month in and around New Iberia, and we have been updating the calendar daily so please make sure to keep coming back to find the events for your family planning adventures this April!
Our Easter Guide was released this week, and it has been updated several times since it was published. You can definitely find an event or two to bring the kids to and join in on the Easter fun in New Iberia and our surrounding areas.
Also, our Spring Festival Guide has been updated as well! Check out all the upcoming festivals, fairs and fun events that are happening in our area in Iberia Parish, St. Martin Parish, Vermilion Parish and St. Mary Parish happening this spring. We also have a section for our favorites happening outside of the area. All of these are just a short drive away but offer more of the Louisiana spirit and culture that we are all familiar with.
Now, here are our top 5 recommendations for family fun this week:
