Festivals Acadiens et Creoles marks a half-century of honoring and celebrating the culture through music, arts, food and community.
The festival started as a one day concert in 1974 to entertain 150 French -speaking journalists gathered in Lafayette .
It's now one of the largest Cajun and Zydeco festivals in the world, organizers say.
"The opposite has happened. More young folks are preserving and playing this music than ever. The Zydeco scene down here is packed with young people. It's super vibrant and alive. The same with the Cajun scene as well.".
