Pageant History
Since the very first Boucherie Festival, we have featured an annual beauty pageant. Initially only for young women, in 1986 it was expanded to include all age groups from Miss Boucherie down to infants, as well as a division for women that are married or have children. The pageant is traditionally held a few weeks before the Boucherie Festival itself. Boucherie queens not only participate in the Festival, but represent the Boucherie Festival at other events and functions, such as the Queen of Queens Pageant hosted by Louisiana Fairs and Festivals.
