Jean Lafitte weekend of seafood, music, and swamp walks

Two people dance together at Jean Lafitte Seafood Festival’s Main Stage in May, 2025.

The savory smoke of grilled seafood paired with live Cajun music in the swamp is unique to southern Louisiana’s culture.

And the small town of Jean Lafitte hosts a weekend of seafood, carnival rides, outdoor fun and music.

The Jean Lafitte Seafood Festival will serve shrimp, oysters, catfish sundaes,

seafood pizzas and a variety of other classic Louisiana cuisine from May 29-31 at the Lafitte Grounds and Jean Lafitte Auditorium, 4953 City Park St. The festival offers a full swamp bayou experience, festival organizer Matthew Riverse said.

“If you want, you can kayak down the swamp and still hear the music of the festival,” he said.

This year’s lineup of music acts includes

Summer pop-up storms can send pets into panic mode

Summer in Louisiana brings plenty of things we love: no homework, backyard barbecues, snoballs, afternoons by the pool and longer daylight hours. Unfortunately, it also brings something many pet owners dread — sudden thunderstorms that can roll in with little warning.

Severe weather has felt more unpredictable in recent years. One minute, the skies are clear, and the next, thunder rattles the windows, the power flickers and anxious pets scramble for cover.

Traci As a longtime pet owner, I’ve Howerton experienced nearly every type of ANIMAL storm-related pet anxiety. I’ve had RESCUE dogs pace endlessly, pant heavily, shake uncontrollably and wedge themselves behind toilets or in closets to escape the noise. If you’ve ever spent a sleepless night comforting a terrified dog during a thunderstorm, you know how stressful it can be for the entire family.

Pets react to storms in different ways. Some bark, whine or tremble, while others hide, scratch at doors or windows or become so panicked they risk hurting themselves. Even normally calm pets can suddenly develop storm anxiety as they age.

Some dogs seem more bothered by nighttime storms than daytime ones. I’ve noticed this with several of my own dogs over the years. A thunderstorm after dark, especially when combined with strong winds or a power outage, can make an already nervous pet even more terrified.

So, what can owners do to help calm an anxious pet during storm season?

Unfortunately, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. What works well for one dog may do nothing for another. Still, several strategies may help make stormy nights a little easier to weather.

Create a safe space

national act Craig Morgan on Saturday, as well as local acts Todd O’Neil, Wayne Toups, Louisiana Landfall, Dwayne Dopsie and the Arron Forest band. The musical performances start roughly an hour after the festival gates open at 5 p.m. on Friday and 11 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. The full lineup is available on the festival’s website.

There will be 15 food vendors, such as

Many pets feel more secure when they have a designated “safe spot” during bad weather. For some dogs, that may be a covered crate, a closet, or a quiet interior room away from windows. Others want to be close to their people.

Oddly enough, some dogs are calmer outdoors during storms, although mine certainly never fell into that category. Most of my dogs preferred to find the smallest hiding place possible and stay there until the thunder passed.

Reducing outside noise can sometimes lessen anxiety. Keeping the television on, playing soft music, or running a fan or white noise machine may help muffle thunder. There are also calming playlists and pet-specific sound apps now available that some owners swear by. Just remember not to crank the volume too high. Dogs with noise sensitivity can become stressed by loud sounds.

The crowd celebrates the whimsy and personality of French Quarter life with bubbles.

Keep the pet occupied If a pet’s anxiety is mild to moderate, a distraction may help. Food puzzles, stuffed Kongs, lick mats, or favorite chew treats can redirect their

NEW ORLEANS LIBRARIES

Continued from page 1G Gigi’s Bread Pudding, Uglee Pizza and Atlantis Oysters, preparing seafood snacks and meals, and a coffee truck and a bar will be offering drinks, including hurricanes.

Festivalgoers can rent kayaks, ride the Ferris wheel, walk the nature trail, and shop for arts and crafts from 30 art vendors.

Metal designs, jewelry, toys, wind crafts and other knick-knacks are among the offerings from art vendors.

“It will bring the community together with local artists, of course, the food, and the very, very unique setting, Riverse said.

The location includes the Wetland Trace boardwalk, which runs through a 41acre cypress swamp. The event space is across from Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve and the main stage, and the main stage butts up against the Wetland Trace.

People who come for the swampy feel can roam the nature trail that meanders through cypress woods.

This year, the Master Naturalists Group and Wildlife and Fishers will lead educational walks to see the region’s wildlife, such as turtles, alligators and snakes, in their habitats.

They will also have booths for learning activities and show-and-tells on the festival grounds.

The festival celebrates its 51st anniversary. It was founded by former Mayor Leo Connor Jr., who sought to attract tourists to Jean Lafitte and expose people to the town’s culture.

The town has a population of more than 1,800, according to the most recent census. The festival can bring up to approximately 7,500 visitors, according to

Craine said the festival used to be run entirely by volunteers and served donated food from restaurants. Today, the festival is sponsored and fully staffed, allowing vendors a place to sell their products and feature national artists.

Just a few years ago, the festival had a small carnival section with only four rides, but this year it has doubled in size, featuring a

mix of roller coasters, kiddie rides, motorbikes, cars, and game booths like balloon darts and ring toss.

Volunteers still put together the event in partnership with advertisers and the town of Jean Laffite, including the Craine and the head of sales, Lauren Martin. Riverse said it takes seven to eight months to plan the event, organize acts, work out logistics, and set up the experience.

Craine said they have

PET OF THE WEEK

Continued from page 1G focus away from the storm.

Mental stimulation works for dogs much like it does for people. If they are concentrating on something enjoyable, they may spend less time obsessing over the weather outside.

Compression wraps, anxiety vests, and snug-fitting shirts can provide comfort for some pets by creating a swaddling effect. Results vary widely by dog, but many pet owners report success.

Consider medical help For pets with severe thunderstorm anxiety, it may be time to seek professional help. In extreme cases, medication or behavioral therapy may be recommended to help prevent panic and keep pets safe.

As always, never give human medications to pets unless specifically instructed by a veterinarian.

Thankfully, my dog, Romeo, couldn’t care less about thunderstorms and sleeps right through them. But after years of managing storm anxiety in previous dogs, I know firsthand how exhausting and emotional it can be

Riverse said the purpose of the festival is to bring people to the town to experience Jean Lafitte in full, from the people to the food and culture. Riverse said the festival offers a unique setting in the heart of the bayou, reflecting what makes up southern Louisiana.
