The folks at Shreveport's Red River Revel Arts Festival have finally announced the full lineup of musical talent that will grace their 2023 stage in October in downtown Shreveport, LA!

Every year, Shreveport's Red River Revel Arts Festival brings you the best in live music from both national and regional acts. With that said, the Revel is always working to grow and improve and will feature a sports bar this year and VIP Balconies.

Did You Know that the Red River Revel Arts Festival has been a signature event for Shreveport area residents for 47 years?

The Red River Revel Arts Festival was created in 1976 as a gift from the Junior League of Shreveport. In fact, Festival Plaza in downtown Shreveport was built for the Revel!

If you grew up here, chances are you took a field trip to the Revel and you know what a gift to our community this event truly is. Research shows that exposure to the arts fuels positive skills and capacities that are valued by leaders and employers, such as persistence, collaboration, creative thinking, problem-solving, and motivation. Plus, art, no matter the medium, makes our world a more beautiful place. In addition to bringing art to the Ark-La-Tex, the Revel also celebrates our unique regional culture.
