Youngsters and people of all ages will have some excitement this year.
Marty the Magician will be performing six shows during this year’s Boggy Bayou Festival.
“We are finding entertainment everyone will enjoy,” says Bernice Ardoin, festival president. “We discovered Marty at the recent Louisiana Association of Fairs and Festivals convention in Baton Rouge three years ago. He performed at our festival for the last two years, plus entertained special guests at the VIP event, and was such a hit, we asked him to return again this year. We were amazed by his performances. We believe all ages will thoroughly enjoys his shows,” she notes.
Marty the Magician will be entertaining on both Thursday and Friday during the festival. His performance, called “Amazing Magic of Marty,” is set for 8-9 p.m. on Thursday evening, 11 a.m. for VIP guests Friday morning, 2-2:45 and on Friday afternoon,and 4-4:45 p.m. His Saturday shows include: 10:30-11:15 a.m. while nursing home residents visit the festival, and 4-4:45 that afternoon. He will spend a total of five hours at the festival each day (Thursday, Friday, and Saturday). After his stage performance, Marty will walk around and entertain festival goers.
Coming to us from Dallas, TX, Marty is looking forward to once again being part of this year’s festival. Plan to take in at least one of his shows at the festival stage.
