The Ascension Parish Fair in Donaldsonville celebrates a rapidly growing River Parish between Baton Rouge and New Orleans where chemical plants and petrochemical facilities line the Mississippi River alongside antebellum plantation homes and historic Donaldsonville, which briefly served as Louisiana state capital.
Fair Highlights
Typical offerings include livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, local food vendors with South Louisiana cooking, and a fair drawing from the growing Ascension Parish communities.
