Louisiana Forest Festival
Winn Parish Fairgrounds 2000 South Jones Street, Winnfield, Louisiana 71483
At the annual Louisiana Forest Festival in Winnfield, aspiring lumberjacks will find their heaven. With chopping and chainsawing galore, this almost fifty-year-old festival salutes the Louisiana timber industry with verve. Attendees can learn more about this history through demonstrations of bear hollow carving, lumbersport competitions, a rodeo, and a crawfish cook-off—as well as excellent food and live music by The Dukes of Country, Spencer Brunson, and Clifton Swamp Band. 6 pm–10 pm Wednesday–Friday; 5 pm–10 pm Saturday.
