World Championship Crawfish Étouffée Cook-Off

Event Date: March 26th, 2023

This event features professional and amateur cooks vying for the title of “World Champion.” Taking place in the city of Eunice this is one of the best ways to taste crawfish in Louisiana. Teams will compete to see who can cook the best crawfish étouffée in three categories: Amateur, Professional and Club/Organization. Once the judges have their samples from the booths, the public can buy the crawfish étouffée directly from the participants. Vote for your favorite to win the People’s Choice Award. The winners will be announced around 3:30pm.

Enjoy live Cajun and zydeco music (starting at 10am), plenty of dancing and, of course, tons of étouffée. This year’s bands included:
Steve Riley & the Mamou Playboys
Jason Frey & Lagniappe
Burke Riley
Cajun Quintet

There will also be arts and crafts, a petting zoo, pony rides, fun jumps, and more fun activities for the whole family. World Championship Crawfish Étouffée Cook-off is held the last Sunday in March every year, except when it conflicts with Easter. Admission and parking are free.
