LSU AGCENTER STATE LIVESTOCK, HORSE, AND RABBIT SHOWS
For more than 70 years, LSU has hosted state livestock and horse shows, which serves as a showcase for Louisiana’s vibrant livestock industry, as well as the adults and young people involved in it.

STATE FAIR
The State Fair of Louisiana Livestock Department is responsible for a majority of the events which take place on the Fairgrounds. Besides planning and conducting all the livestock shows throughout the 14-day State Fair, the Livestock staff also handles events. The livestock facilities are rented several weekends a year for many agricultural-related activities.
