festival

It's time for one of the oldest running festivals in Louisiana, 'Holiday In Dixie'! Beginning April 13th running through April 22nd, this years festival is packed full of family fun!

It's officially Spring! As soon as the pollen settles and this stormy weather passes, get out and enjoy some music! There is some excellent entertainment in our great State this Spring!

Lawnmower races! Need we say more? Gusher Days kicks off next week in Oil City! It's a three day celebration of the rich oil industry history in North Caddo parish. There will be good food and good fun this year for sure!

  The “Twelve Days of Christmas” is on my mind, so I did some research to find out just what IS “The Thing” about the TDoC. I heard right after Thanksgiving that the Partridge in a pear tree, Turtle Doves, French Hens, Calling Birds, Five Golden Rings, Laying Geese, Swimming Swans, Milk Maids, Waiting Ladies, Leaping Lords, Pipers and Drummers cost a lot more in 2011. $101,119.84! Up 4.4% from 2..

It’s a Christmas Swamp Ride with Junior and Willie Edwards (Swamp People) in Benton for Christmas on the Square!  Benton’s Christmas on the square is happening Saturday December 10th! There is plenty of fun for the entire family planned for Benton's Christmas celebration.

Plain Dealing will kick off Christmas November 26th with music in the park all day long along with Santa, fun for the kids, artwork, quilts, dutch ovens and of course, plenty to snack on. The day will wrap up with fireworks.

If you feel like a Holiday Trail of Lights road trip or two, here are the hot spots across our great State for enjoying the lights and festivities! From right here in Kiss Country to Minden, Monroe, Alexandria and Pineville, you will find areas that are already buzzing with excitement!

It's celebration time in Minden! The Fasching  Fifth Season Festival celebrates all things German.  The party started today and continues tomorrow with thousands of Christmas lights, a fireworks display, ice skating, German food, entertainment, arts and crafts. And yes, since its a German celebration, beer.

Kiss Country is helping you get your "Country Thang" on with Colt Ford at the Red River Revel! Five winners and their guests will get exclusive KISS Country meet & greet passes to hang out with Colt Ford before his show this Saturday at the Revel! Get registered!

The Red Red Revel arts festival opens tomorrow in Shreveport's Downtown Festival Plaza. With three entertainment stages and a huge lineup of performers, this years Revel should be great--especially if we hang on to the nice temperatures in the 80's!

Mudbug Madness gates open at 11 am today at Festival Plaza for the 28th annual celebration of the crawfish boil! From the fabulous food list, the entertainment schedule, the free admission days and times, to the places you can easily hop a shuttle to join the celebration: I have all your Mudbug Madness information here!

I absolutely love festival season in the South. We are fortunate to live so very close to all the best festivals, like the 13th annual Sunflower Trail and Festival coming up very soon in Gilliam, Louisiana. I have your map and details about what to expect at the festival. Don't forget your camera! You will be snapping tons of photos of the gorgeous sunflowers in bloom along the route to Gilliam! R
