Medina Lake Cajun Festival
Gumbo, live music, and a whole lot of personality. We brought the festival's spirit online with anniversary artwork, lively movement, and the details visitors need to plan their day.
A taste of the festival
A little Louisiana. A lot of festival personality.
Big headlines, bright colors, and food photography set the mood. Then the site helps visitors find the music, check admission, and decide what they don't want to miss.
The gumbo cook-off
Gumbo gets its own stage
A dedicated cook-off page puts the photos, story, and ways to take part in one place. It's easy to see why gumbo is such a big part of the day.
Festival food
A taste of what's waiting
Food photography and festival stories give visitors a taste of the day before they arrive.
On your phone
Handy before you head out
Dates, admission, and visitor information stay easy to find on a phone, from the first plan to the last-minute check.
What we set out to do
Get people excited. Make planning easy.
The festival has a personality all its own, and a plain event listing wouldn't do it justice. We paired the celebration with practical information, so visitors can enjoy the story and still find the date, hours, and admission details when they need them.
An opening with personality
The illustrated anniversary poster and "Come hungry. Leave dancing." headline give visitors a feel for the festival right away.
The details that matter
Date, hours, admission, and links to plan a visit sit close to the celebration. No searching through a long page for the basics.
Food & live music
The cook-off, music, and food each have room to shine, with photos and stories that show what makes the day special.
Easy to check on the day
Visitors can use their phones to check event information while they're heading over or enjoying the festival.
Design direction
Make people excited to visit. Help them plan the day.
The festival's color and movement give the site its personality. Clear links to music, food, admission, and visitor information make it useful when someone is ready to come along.
