The 12th Annual Avoyelles Arts & Music Festival finds a fresh, new venue at the Paragon Casino Resort

After 11 incredible years of arts, music and memories on the grounds of Broken Wheel Brewery, we’re bringing the 2024 Avoyelles Arts & Music Festival to the Paragon Casino Resort! We’re thrilled to announce a fantastic new partnership with the Tunica-Biloxi Tribe of Louisiana and Paragon Casino Resort to offer an exciting and fresh festival experience. This move will include entertainment in the air-conditioned Mari Showroom, arts and crafts in the grand hall and, as always, plenty of kid-friendly activities!
