Listings come from Lafayette Travel, the Lafayette Convention & Visitors Commission’s official calendar, last refreshed November 13, 2026. Every card links back to their page, which carries the full description, ticket links, and any change the organizer has posted since — treat that as the authority, not this summary.
Two things to know. Events that repeat — a weekly music night, a monthly market — are published upstream as a single date, so that’s what shows here; check the venue for the rest of the run. And organizers cancel: call ahead before you drive to a small one. Running something that isn’t listed? Submit it to Lafayette Travel and it’ll reach this page on the next refresh, or tell us directly.
