If it's a less formal but fun nightlife atmosphere you're looking for, then Fatty Arbuckle's Pub is just for you. It attracts both the younger crowd as well as the older set, not only for its late-night bar charm but also because it is within walking distance from two casinos in the Red River District underneath the Neon Bridge. Music, dancing, arcade games, and a great menu that features such tasty choices as half shell oysters, make Fatty Arbuckle's Pub a great destination to spend your evening with friends.

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.

If you want to steer the family away from all the hustle and bustle of the city and relax near the water, a good choice is the Charles and Marie Hamel Memorial Park. Clean, well-maintained and serene, the scenery is a nice break from all of the city's fast-paced activity and mainstream attractions. Over the park's seventeen acres, you'll find the perfect spot to have a picnic and enjoy the river view. The hours are dawn until dusk, so plan a day full of wide open spaces with the Hamel Park as your only destination.
