Lowcountry Cajun Festival

Bringing Louisiana to the Lowcountry! The Lowcountry Cajun Festival returns to James Island County Park with a full day of toe-tapping Zydeco music, bold Cajun and Creole flavors, kid-friendly activities, and all-around ragin’ Cajun fun.
Come hungry and savor authentic Cajun and Creole classics like jambalaya, alligator, étouffée, andouille sausage, and crawfish—alongside beloved Lowcountry favorites including fresh seafood and Southern barbecue. Prefer to keep it simple? We’ve got plenty of festival staples too, from hot dogs and sno-cones to other crowd-pleasing treats.
