WE HAVE SOME BIG CHANGES TO ANNOUNCE!

The Carnival is going to look COMPLETELY DIFFERENT this year!
This year, Talley Amusements, one of the top midway providers in the country, is bringing a new look to the State Fair of Louisiana. As fairgoers enter the main gate, they will experience a grand entrance, new-to-the-region spectacular state-of-the art rides, and thousands of LED lights.
Need to charge your phone or change a diaper while at the fair? Talley will also be providing free charging stations and diaper changing stations, and you’ll be able to meet and take selfies with Talley Amusements’ mascot, Lil Tate.
