Festival International Kicks Off On Wednesday

The best world music festival in the...well....world will get kicked off on Wednesday in downtown Lafayette. The lineup this year is so diverse, you may have a hard time checking out all your favorites. Fortunately, you can use the Festival International app to plan your schedule in advance.

Dave Baker from the Storm Team 3 Weather Lab says the forecast through the weekend looks perfect for outside enjoyment. Parking won't be a problem, either. Park at Cajun Field and take the free shuttle downtown. The shuttle runs every 15 minutes, and will bring you right to the middle of the action.
