The South Louisiana Wetlands Discovery Center’s Rougarou Fest will be from October 21 through October 23, 2022. Traditionally, the fest has filled the streets of Downtown Houma, however, this year will be different. It will kick-off at the South Louisiana Wetlands Discovery Center, which is still being constructed, located at 132 Library Drive in Houma, near the Civic Center.
The fest is returning to Houma after 2021’s festival was canceled due to Hurricane Ida. Instead of holding a festival, the organization focused on the Rougarou Relief program that aided in Hurricane Ida’s fundraising and recovery efforts.
