Sabine Freestate Festival

Turn back time to the days when the "Neutral Strip" between Spanish lands and the fledgling United States fostered a unique "No Man's Land" culture in Western Louisiana (1806–1821). Live out your Wildest West adventures with a shootout, or point your guns to the sky for a skeet shoot. Take part in pioneer demonstrations, jam sessions, a minnow race, axe throwing, an exotic petting zoo, and more—plus plenty of live music all day long. It all takes place on the Sabine Freestate Festival Grounds at 237 West Port Arthur Avenue Florien, Louisiana. Details at sabinefreestatefestival.com.
