Each November, the area's best local and regional musicians along with some nationally recognized artists gather for the Highland Jazz and Blues Festival. Known as Shreveport's "party in the park," there's a whole lot more than just the incredible music. You'll see unique jewelry, home décor, and other one-of-a-kind items for sale by participating artisans. Two stages feature rotating musical acts, and the five hours of live music and fun are absolutely free!
If your schedules and other commitments keep you and your main squeeze from leaving town for a romantic trip, why not journey to the Fairfield Bed and Breakfast? The two of you will be pampered by the king size European beds, fireplaces and whirlpool tubs - elements that make it easy to lose the week's stress and allow the two of you to get close without any interruptions. Fairfield's two adjoining homes were built around 1870 and feature a 1-acre green garden oasis, a perfect venue for you and your honey to take a walk through after you arrive in the evening or just before breakfast in the morning.
How about keeping everyone rolling through a fun afternoon? The best way to make sure everyone in your family will do that is to have them lace up a pair of skates and experience the rink at the Hot Wheels Skating Palace Roller Skating Rink. Whether you have family members just starting out on skates or the kids are already pros, you'll find the rink's fun, family atmosphere will make skating around a comfortable, stress-free experience you'll return to again and again.
