Join the Louisiana Music Museum for the inaugural "Rock the Block" - a vibrant downtown street dance dedicated to the past, present, and future of our state’s incredible sound. We’re taking over the 100 block of Vermilion St. for an evening of live local legends, downtown flavors, and a chance to leave your mark on the museum before the first stone is even laid.
Whether you're a lifelong zydeco fan, a jazz aficionado, or just looking for the best Saturday night vibe in Lafayette, there’s a spot on the block for you.
What’s on the Setlist:
🎶The Main Stage: Catch high-energy sets from two local Louisiana bands (stay tuned for the lineup reveal!).
The Taste of Downtown: We’ve invited our favorite neighborhood restaurants to serve up local eats and refreshments.
🎶The Legacy: Be part of the first to join our Paver Campaign. Purchase a personalized commemorative paver that will be permanently installed at the museum’s grand entrance. Choose from two sizes and ensure your name is part of our continued legacy.
🎶The Merch Tent: Grab exclusive, limited-edition Louisiana Music Museum swag - only available at this event.
🎶The Memories: Enjoy multiple photo-op installations designed to capture your favorite moments and memories.
The Details:
Admission: Free and Open to the Public!
RSVP: Let us know you’re coming so that we can adequately prepare food and beverage quantities!
