With a celebration for almost every food and beverage imaginable, it’s no surprise that the city honors this deliciously iconic French treat with a festival. This year, Beignet Fest is back and will be celebrated on September 25, 2021. Mark your calendars and prepare to indulge in fried chicken and beignets, cochon beignets, crawfish beignets, Oreo beignets and of course, the classic traditional beignet.
Proceeds from Beignet Festival will benefit Tres Doux Foundation, whose mission is to celebrate and enhance the lives of children with developmental delays and disabilities. For more information on Beignet Fest, see here.
