The little town of Lutcher has made a tradition of its own, celebrating its Festival of the Bonfires each December. Call it Christmas lights Cajun style, it's a prelude to the Christmas Eve bonfires later in the month. The sparks and holiday cheer ignite Friday afternoon at 2 pm, with the festival continuing all day Saturday and Sunday with Christmas on the River...Cajun Style! at Lutcher Recreational Park. Enjoy live entertainment, great food, crafts, Santa's Very Merry Forest, carnival rides, and more fun for the entire family. Each night of the event will also include a bonfire lighting. festivalofthebonfires.org.
