This festival showcases the ritual of making cracklins - a traditional Louisiana food that has made headlines on such cooking reality shows such as Top Chef. Terrific food, great Cajun, zydeco and swamp pop music, carnival rides, arts and crafts, and a beauty pageant. The parade rolls through on Saturday morning.  Sponsored by the Port Barre Lions Club. No ice chests, glass containers or pets allowed. Cracklin Festival is held the second weekend in November every year. www.portbarrecracklinfestival.com
