Every year, Shreveport's Red River Revel Arts Festival brings you the best in live music from both national and regional acts. Here's this year's epic entertainment lineup!

The Red River Revel Arts Festival has been a signature event for Shreveport area residents for 47 years.

Did you know that 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.

Red River Revel 47 Entertainment

Whether it's visual, performance, or musical art, the Revel has it and this year, we think you're going to love the musical entertainment. This year's performers include Paul Cauthen, Eric Gales, Here Come the Mummies, Sophie B. Hawkins, and more. This year's entertainment will also feature a unique tribute to Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers
with a secret roster of national, regional, and local contributing artists that will be announced over the summer. Get the latest by clicking here.
