The Louisiana Folklife Center has been monitoring the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic very closely, and has postponed making a decision about the 2020 Natchitoches-NSU Folk Festival in hopes that the situation would improve. However, it is with a great deal of sadness that unfortunately this year’s Festival, including the Louisiana State Fiddle Championship, will not be able to be held. We have high hopes that we will have a wonderful musical reunion at next year’s Festival in July 2021.

However, it is with a great deal of sadness that unfortunately this year’s Natchitoches-NSU Folk Festival will not be able to be held in a face-to-face format.
The Louisiana Folklife Center is exploring options for virtual ways to celebrate Louisiana’s rich folk cultures this year. More information will be coming soon!
Whatever form this year’s Festival takes, the 2020 t-shirt will soon be available for purchase! Check out the design by Matt DeFord below.
Thank you so much for your continued patience and support.
Go Demons!
Vive la Louisiane!
