Central Parking for Lafayette's Premier Festivals
Located on the 800 block of St. John Street, this parking area is a key hub for visitors to Downtown Lafayette, especially during major city events like Festival International de Louisiane and Mardi Gras. Its central location provides excellent walking access to multiple festival stages, food vendors, and cultural attractions, including the historic Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist. While it may function as a private or public lot year-round, its primary role is providing convenient paid event parking during Lafayette’s celebrated festivals.
