Waterway Village Zydeco & Crawfish Festival
Gulf Shores & Orange Beach
The 2024 Zydeco and Crawfish Festival has been canceled.
Mardi Gras may be over, but we’re keeping the spirit of New Orleans alive this spring at the Waterway Village Zydeco & Crawfish Festival. The pots will be boiling up crawfish from 10 am-6 pm on Friday, April 21 and Saturday, April 22, so bring your appetite, friends, and family. Order up a pound (or five or 10) of this seasonal delicacy and prepare for a beaucoup of fun!
After you’ve licked your fingers clean, browse incredible, original artwork sponsored by the Gulf Coast Arts Alliance along with other arts and crafts vendors. Don’t leave the kiddos at home, as there will be activities for them, including inflatables, face painting, and craft stations. With all this fun, you’ll want to make a day of the free event!
If you really work up an appetite before you devour your heaping helping of crawfish, come early for the 5K run and one-mile fun run beginning at 8 am on Saturday. Organizers encourage you to register early for the race, but there will also be late registration open the morning of the event.
Check out the hot lodging deals in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, and get ready for beaucoup fun on the Alabama Gulf Coast!
