Any way you look at them, Ruston peaches are the Belle of the Season! Savor a cobbler, enter the peach-eating contest, enjoy locally made peach ice cream. Peachfest is the longest-running agriculture celebration in Louisiana.
There´s music nightly in downtown Ruston´s historic Railroad Park, bands on stage all day Saturday and a contemporary Christian and gospel jamboree Sunday afternoon.
It´s family fun for everyone. Check out events especially for kids, for the athletically inclined, and just all the things to make you smile in the Festival Events section.
Our two arts-and-crafts venues feature everything from one-of-a-kind handmade items to fun things to wear, toys for the kids, and more. There´s also food galore!
