Things to do in Lafayette

Lafayette is the largest city in Acadiana, the region of south Louisiana where Cajun and Creole culture is still spoken, cooked and danced. It is also the business center of the state’s onshore and offshore oil and gas service industry, with companies that support drilling and production throughout the Gulf. The University of Louisiana at Lafayette, home of the Ragin’ Cajuns, and two large hospital systems round out the economy.
