Instead of jeans and t-shirts and the usual laid back date, get dressed up for a romantic night out. Reach into the back of your closet for that suit or cocktail dress you rarely wear and step out to enjoy the Shreveport Symphony Orchestra. With various performances scheduled throughout the year, it's a great opportunity to absorb some classical music and soar with some of the area's culture vultures instead of the usual bar flies.
If the angler in you is ready to leave the workweek behind and start relaxing by catching some fish, Barron's Landing and Marina is the perfect place to escape. A great, friendly staff will make your time behind the fishing rod as stress-free as possible. It's your choice to either fish in the marina, where reeling in large bass is a frequent occurrence, or you can rent a Jon boat for only $40 and head out on your own. Either way, a great fishing excursion is only a few minutes away!
Great rides, an excellent place for parties, and a surprisingly delicious menu all make Splash Kingdom Water Town the place for lots of great family fun and water recreation. And even though the older kids will enjoy the bigger slides, the younger members of the family will enjoy the wading pools and play areas.
Shreveport's Mudbug Madness Festival all started when people began to view the people in Shreveport more as Texans than natives of Louisiana. In response to that erroneous perception, a group of citizens wanted to stage the largest crawfish boil in the downtown area, add lots of music and fun, and reinforce the Cajun culture and attitude in the city. What started as a two day festival has become a four-day tradition that happens every Memorial Day Weekend and draws as many as 56,000 people in one day.
