Morehouse May Madness Street Festival

Looking for an upscale, clean, family oriented event with great music and food in northeast Louisiana? Save May 3, 2025 on your calendar. This is the 8th year for the growing and popular Morehouse May Madness Street Festival (MMM) which takes place in historic downtown Bastrop where the Morehouse Parish Courthouse is the centerpiece for the many activities planned for the day and where the streets are closed. Juried vendors are found in the Courthouse parking lot as well as at other locations. No festival is complete without outstanding music and food. Look no further than the west end of the Courthouse for the main stage where there is fantastic food vendors conveniently located too. Event organizers have made every effort to make sure there are attractions for all. A kid zone, an art exhibit, a classic car exhibit, and a motorcycle exhibit are all included. With seating provided under tents, the heat and any precipitation that might occur can be avoided. Security and safety are top priority! Without the Morehouse Parish Sheriff's Department deputies, there would be no festival. They are the best! The deputies, as well as the Pafford ambulance, are very visible during the day and insure that those attending the Festival are safe. There is NO gate fee. To register to be a vendor, for many previous event photos, and for more information, go to morehousemaymadness.com or find the event on Facebook. Email [email protected] with any questions. The organizers are all volunteers and event proceeds are used to make improvements to the community and for future MMM festivals.

Last year, it was said that "Morehouse is back." Come see for yourself. The event hours are from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Be there!
