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.

The Olde Covered Bridge Gardens features an ever changing bouquet of flowering plants all surrounding this historic bridge in one of the most visually captivating corners of the city. You'll find that this is a great place for spending time outdoors.
