On Sunday, March 27, Opelousas welcomed people of all backgrounds and creeds to celebrate their annual Love Fest at North City Park.
The day began with a worship service at 10:00 am followed by a car show, live music and a few three-on-three basketball games .
Mayor Julius Alsandor said the event was a success thanks to the community's involvement in showing the love.
"What we created is not a success without everybody's participation in showing the love," said Alsandor. "What you're experiencing out here is the love in our community. We have to continue to push this love forward."
