Gibsland, Louisiana, designated as the “Daffodil Capital of Louisiana”, Gibsland has been a favorite early spring destination for area residents.  This year the Jonquil Jubilee committee is excited to announce that Margaret Martin, celebrated Shreveport Times journalist, will be the featured speaker for the event.

All the favorite attractions that have made the festival so popular will be returning, such as taking a driving tour along its back roads to enjoy the thousands of daffodils, both native and recently planted, then stopping to enjoy the sights and sounds of a working blacksmith shop recreated to display antique tools and farm implements.  Guests can take a leisurely walk around town where vendors will be selling native plants and crafts.  Local crafts and quilts will be on display at the First Baptist Church, and a variety of "tablescapes" will be displayed at the Gibsland Methodist Church. Of course the Bonnie and Clyde Museums will also be open. 

Tickets for the self-guided tour will be available at the Jubilee booth for $10.00.  This ticket will contain a map of the various local plantings, and will also be your admission to the attractions on the tour.
