Railroad Days Festival

The Louisiana Railroad Days Festival is a festival held annually in DeQuincy, Louisiana during the 2nd weekend in April. The Railroad Festival has been the highlight of the year in DeQuincy since it first begun in 1983. The festival celebrates DeQuincy’s rich history and railroad heritage, along with the present role of the railroad industry in the city of DeQuincy, as well as the region and the state. It is held in the center of town on the grounds surrounding the DeQuincy Railroad Museum (1923 KCS Depot).

The festival starts on Thursday afternoon and ends late Saturday night. There’s always a bunch of rides, carnival games, food booths, church booths, activities, and live entertainment. There’s also a flea market, a children’s bicycle parade early on Friday, a big parade through town on Friday afternoon, and a concert every evening, with the biggest one on Saturday night. The festival is family oriented, no alcohol, and is admission free, making it one of the most family friendly festivals in Louisiana.
We bought a whole roll of tickets for the Louisiana Railroad Days Festival this year, we’re going to ride ourselves sick!

The Railroad Festival is like DeQuincy’s favorite and most observed “holiday”, next to Christmas. The whole town shuts down on the weekend of the festival.
