Conroe Cajun Catfish Festival

While October is usually known for the appearance of ghosts and ghouls, and an influx of candy in the supermarkets, we like to do things a little differently in Conroe. We like to reserve a few of those spooky days for our Annual Conroe Cajun Catfish Festival! Come out on October 9th and enjoy some live music and good food! The festival lasts until the 11th, so don’t worry if you can’t make it out right away.

 

 

Live Music

There will be plenty of live music playing on three separate stages, a Texas Stage and a Cajun Stage. Music begins Friday at 6 PM, but starts bright an early on Saturday at 11 AM. You can expect to see Parker McCollum, Bayou Roux, Josh Ward, Wayne Toups, and the Casey Donahew Band. There are many other groups scheduled as well, so make sure to check out the lineup!

 

 

What To Expect!

Bring the little ones! There will a kid zone just for them, and there will also be several vendors serving food and drinks. Unfortunately, you can’t bring your own alcohol in, but there will be vendors selling beer and wine.

 

The carnival will begin Thursday and admittance into the area is free until Saturday. Armbands for carnival rides are $15 on Thursday, and $20 on Friday, Saturday & Sunday.

 

There will be arts and crafts vendors, community and educational exhibits, the annual Catfish Pageant, the aforementioned Kid Zone, and a performance stage that feature local dance teams and other community groups and entertainers.

Feel Like a Local at Woodland Lakes

One of the main reasons for travel is to get a chance to experience your new surroundings. Sure, the tourist attractions are fun, but the best part is getting to experience what the locals in the area enjoy. You can’t really get a feel for a new location until you see it the way the natives do.

 

 

Concerts in the Park

One of our favorite things to do around here is attend one of the Concerts in the Park. The Concerts in the Park series is seasonal, and hosts a variety of different bands each year. Did we mention it’s FREE? The music starts at 5:30 PM and you are encouraged to bring blankets and chairs, for your viewing comfort. You can expect to hear The Spicolis play on September 13th (and yes, you can guess from the name that they are an awesome 80’s rock band.) The following Sunday, September 20th, you can boot-scoot-boogie with Matt Mason. Check out the other Concerts in the Park scheduled for this fall!

Market Street

In Market Street’s Central Park area, you can find various art shows, car shows, musical performances and more. It doesn’t hurt that it’s smack dab in the middle of a shopping center! Enjoy Coffee & Cars every 3rd Saturday of the month, or wait for the Fall Art Show scheduled for Saturday, October 3rd. You can’t miss out on the annual Tree Lighting Event on November 19th. It’s one of our favorite events!

 

 

Trick Or Treat!

Halloween is still almost two months away, but Trick or Treat Trail is one of our favorite traditions! (Don’t worry, we’ll remind you about it once it gets closer, but we thought it was worth mentioning now.) On October 25th, take your family out and enjoy an evening of Halloween festivities, including trick-or-treating, vendor booths, costume contests, and more!
