SHRIMP AND PETROLEUM FESTIVAL

SHRIMP AND PETROLEUM FESTIVAL is the oldest chartered harvest festival in Louisiana. Morgan City’s Shrimp and Petroleum Festival celebrates two of the region’s economic lifelines with pageantry, parades, fireworks, culinary competitions, and live music. The event draws crowds from across the state for a blend of industry pride and bayou revelry. It’s a Labor Day tradition that bridges the coast’s working-class backbone and cultural flair.
