🌊🎶 FLOAT FEST NEEDS A LITTLE WIND IN ITS SAILS! 🎶🌊
Y’all… we did it again. We planned a completely bonkers, completely free, completely awesome party… in the MIDDLE of Lake Pontchartrain.
Float Fest Slidell is back—3 bands, all floating, all jamming, all for the love of good times and sunburned memories. 🌞🎸
But here’s the deal:
Putting on a floating music festival isn’t exactly cheap. There’s sound. There’s safety. There’s fuel. There’s so many noodles 🛟. We are still looking for sponsors so if you know anyone who might be interested, send them our way.
👉 If you’ve ever danced on a raft, floated with friends, or just had a cold drink in your hand while the band played your favorite song mid-lake, consider tossing a few bucks into the Float Fest Fund.
Every dollar keeps the music playing.
Venmo | Cash | Carrier Pigeon — we’ll take whatever you’ve got (ok maybe not the pigeon 🐦).

History Of Float Fest Slidell

Float Fest Slidell launched in 2022 as a grassroots celebration of music, summer, and Louisiana’s love for the water. Held on Crab Trap Island in Lake Pontchartrain, this one-of-a-kind festival invites you to float, boat, swim, or wade your way to the party—because there are no roads to this stage, only waves.

By 2025, the event had already made a splash with performances from local legends like PaperChase, Rhythm Chasers, and Two Piece Dark Meat: The Delta Variant. With its laid-back, “party at your own risk” vibe and a crowd that brings their own floats, Float Fest has quickly become a must-attend summer ritual.
