It is billed as “the largest, most-authentic Louisiana-themed music and food festival this side of the bayou.” Presented by San Diego’s Bon Temps Social Club, it features four days of live music with more than 100 musical acts and special performances on seven stages, plus 10,000 pounds of crawfish trucked from Louisiana. It’s location is at Spanish Landing Park along the San Diego Bay’s back bay.
“Gator By The Bay is an all-in-one event that brings Louisiana’s rich and diverse culture right to San Diego Bay by showcasing Louisiana’s eclectic melting pot of history, food, music, dance and more,” said Peter Oliver, a Gator By The Bay Producer. “We truly pride ourselves in offering San Diegans and visitors alike the chance to experience authentic Louisiana culture. I can guarantee you will discover something new and leave wanting more.”
The festival features bands playing blues, rockabilly and roots performers, salsa and Latin.
The food is truly Louisiana: crawfish, boudin sausage, catfish, alligator, barbecue, oysters, gumbo, jambalaya, po’ boys and etouffée. For dessert there is a Southern selection of beignets, sweet potato pie, homemade ice cream, pralines and bread pudding.
