Downtown Alive! 2019 Fall Season Kicks Off Tonight

Downtown Alive!, Lafayette's longest-running free outdoor concert series, kicks off its 2019 fall season tonight at Parc International.

The zydeco party is on tonight with two great acts as Chubby Carrier & the Bayou Swamp Band + Corey Ledet & His Zydeco Band will both take the stage.

DTA! Happiest Hour starts at 5:00 pm, followed by music and fun until 9:00 pm.

This fall's DTA! series is presented by Evangeline Maid as part of the bakery's celebration of their century-long bread-making tradition in Acadiana.

All shows are free for all ages. Smoking and pets are not allowed to encourage a safe and family-friendly event for all.

Food and drinks are sold inside the park, with proceeds helping to pay for the concerts.
