Louisiana Swampfest

New Orleans, LA -

The Louisiana Swamp Exhibit is where is all started. It was the inspiration for the Louisiana Swamp Fest and central point for meeting Swamp Creatures - two and four legged kinds. Audubon Zoo's Louisiana Swamp Exhibit is the most authentic swamp exhibit in Louisiana.

Louisiana Swampfest

Fest-goers can experience traditional Cajun music, learn how to create generation-old wood carvings, or hear about the origins of Cajun culture. Feedings throughout the Louisiana Swamp Exhibit include alligators, nutria, water snakes, possums, coons or just about any other Swamp inhabitant there is!
