The Louisiana Peach Festival was moved to October in 2020, and it ended up being renamed PEACHtober! Downtown Ruston hosted a scaled back festival with 2 areas blocked off for community activities.
We stopped by to check it out for ourselves, and it was a lot of fun! Here’s what we saw:

A crowd gathered in the park to watch musical acts take the stage.
Talented performers provided live music in Railroad Park!
