Christmas Bonfire Party
Oak Alley Plantation 3645 Highway 18, North Vacherie, Louisiana 70090
How many floral arrangements, swags of mistletoe, piles of fresh fruit, and nineteenth-century baubles does it take to decorate Oak Alley Plantation for Christmas? Find out by reserving tickets for the annual bonfire celebration, which spreads its good cheer throughout the mansion and grounds. Decadent Cajun/Creole buffets, open bars, a lively dance band, door prizes, and plenty of good cheer heighten the holiday spirit.
At 8 pm, you'll follow a brass quintet down the lighted alley to the levee, where a big ol' bonfire adds its special sparkle to the evening. Warmed by the fire, caroling will take place right there next to the mighty Mississippi, then it’s back to the mansion for coffee, beignets, and more dancing until midnight. 7 pm–midnight. Be quick! This one sells out every year. (225) 265-2151 or oakalleyplantation.com.
