Basin Brew Fest has been proudly showcasing Louisiana Craft beer since our inaugural event in 2017. Our purpose is simple: give everyone who visits a little taste of what the The Boot has to offer in the craft beer world! With homebrewers and new breweries popping up across the state, we are continuing to expand our festival.

While our purpose is to share some Southern flavor, our goal is to raise funds to complete renovations to a local jewel, our Historic Lawrence Park in the heart of Downtown Morgan City. Since 2017, our event has helped raise over $100,000 in funds to help renovate the playground, the historic gazebo, parking area, cornerstone monument and some fountain improvements but there’s still work to be done! And NOW, we have obtained our own 501c3 - The Basin Cares Foundation. Our committee has a passion for community and through the years, you have helped us make improvements to our local quality of life by not only hosting an ever growing event but making needed updates to a local play area for our children and parts of our history.

Preserving history, building community, improving our quality of life, spreading awareness and having a good time is really what we're all about and by way of celebrating Louisiana's Craft Beer Industry, we've found a way to successfully combine all of those things.

Each year, our event has grown, bringing in visitors from surrounding cities and even states but always keeping our locals at the heart of the event.

In 2026, The 8th Annual Basin Brew Fest is set to take place on Saturday, March 28th.
