Alex Winter Fete

About

Held each December in downtown Alexandria, Alex Winter Fête draws hundreds of vendors across multiple blocks offering Louisiana cuisine, handmade crafts, and seasonal treats. Food vendors feature Cajun staples (gumbo, jambalaya, etouffee), fair foods, Southern classics, and Louisiana-made desserts alongside spiced cider and custom hot chocolate. Craft booths showcase jewelry, candles, metal art, paintings, wooden ornaments, and custom home décor — many vendors offer on-the-spot personalization. Booths are outdoors (mostly tent-covered) with designated seating throughout the festival.
