The annual Gumbo Festival in Bridge City attracts thousands of people from all over the country as well as the local community. It has a positive impact on the economy of our area and especially Jefferson Parish and metropolitan New Orleans.

 

We have touted our title “The Gumbo Capital of the World” since 1973. The parishioners of Holy Guardian Angels Church sponsor the Gumbo Festival and all proceeds are used for the maintenance and operation of the church and its properties. We are asking local businesses and public servants to sponsor our event in the form of a tax-deductible donation to help cover overhead expenses.

 

Your sponsorship will help boost the economy of our area while supporting a worthwhile cause. Please consider one of the opportunities below:

*Please note: No signs can contain the words "Vote For". We invite you to attend and participate in the opening ceremonies as we celebrate the Gumbo Festival. You will surely have a great time, sha!
