Ponchatoula Pulse, October 2nd

This week in Ponchatoula

Ponchatoula’s got a weekend lineup that’s tough to beat. Friday night, Live After 5 brings the Justin Cornett Band downtown for music, friends, and that perfect small-town vibe. Then Saturday, the Art & Wine Stroll takes over Main Street, blending local art with sips and shopping—it’s basically Ponchatoula at its best. And if you’re ready to get spooky a little early, Fireside RV Resort is cranking things up with their first Halloween Spectacular.

The rest of the week keeps rolling with brunches, book clubs, workshops, and all the usual local favorites, but let’s be real: downtown is where you’ll want to be this weekend.
