Alligator Festival of St. Charles Parish

The first Alligator Festival took place on the driving range at Willowdale Country Club in 1980. After quickly outgrowing Willowdale, the Alligator Festival was moved to Our Lady of the Holy Rosary Catholic Church in Hahnville. Since 2000, the Alligator Festival has been located at the West Bank Bridge Park.

The Alligator Festival is hosted and staffed by the almost 90-member Rotary Club of St. Charles Parish and their family and friends – all funds raised go towards scholarships to Destrehan and Hahnville High School Seniors to further their education.

Come partake in a family-friendly atmosphere with craft vendors, delicious alligator dishes, carnival rides, and live bands, all in the largest festival in St. Charles Parish. You may even get the chance to pet a live alligator.
