Festival of the Bonfires
In the weeks leading up to Christmas, communities along the Mississippi River construct bonfires up to 30-feet tall. These impressive structures, some taking months to build, honor the region’s French heritage. The bonfires are lit on Christmas Eve as a symbol of guiding “Papa Noel” on his way. Many towns host bonfire parties on the nights leading up to Christmas Eve. Grab some hot cocoa or coffee and join us aboard a party bus to drive along the River Road. Gaze at the flickering flames lighting up the night sky as we make stops at the best bonfire displays. Popular locations include Lutcher, Garyville, St. James Parish, and Gramercy. Ask our drivers for their tried and true spot recommendations.
