Welcome to Lafayette
Ça fait chaud (it’s hot) …
Lagniappe (a little something extra) …
C’est bon (that’s good).
No matter how you say it, the culture in South Louisiana, like our dialect, is seasoned with a taste of Cajun French and Creole. Lafayette is a flavorful combination of spirited festivals, savory cuisine, outdoor activities, breath-taking scenery and a rich history.
Lafayette is at the heart of Acadiana, an area known for its Cajun and Creole cultures and the birthplace of unique types of cuisine and music. You’ll find that our distinct brand of fun just grabs hold of people.
