A family friendly event, the festival will be held in Lafayette with future plans of hosting an

Irish Parade. This festival is sure to entertain with performances by traditional Celtic bands from both close to home and around the world. With unique events such as Irish dancing, the Guinness Cook-Off Competition, Whiskey tasting, and a children's area, Celtic Bayou Festival is sure to be a went like that to it pleaser for both young and old… no matter which culture you hail from.

An hommage was paid to the Sinners choir of Louisiana singers yesterday as we sang a couple tunes that we performed on the film's soundtrack.
🧛🍻🎉
Thanks to all who came out and sang along. Being part of the making of the Sinners movie was something we will not soon forget!
