Shreveport has always been a city defined by music where icons like Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, and Hank Williams preformed at the historic Municipal Auditorium to the blues, rock, and jazz that filled many downtown establishments, music has shaped our culture, connected our community, and told the story of who we are. Today, we have a chance to honor that legacy and write the next chapter.
Public voting is until September 15 at 7:00pm CT.

ABOUT SHREVEPORT’s PROPOSED MUSIC SERIES:
Shreveport Regional Arts Council has applied for $120,000 in grants to help fund 30 Live Music Shows at Caddo Common Park over the next three years. We propose to host 10 events per year spanning diverse genres such as Rockabilly, Hispanic, Pop, Hip Hop, Rhythm & Blues, Gospel, Classical, Country & Western, Zydeco, Reggae, and more!
Free live music is more than just entertainment. It’s an opportunity to gather families and friends, to strengthen connections between neighbors, to draw visitors and businesses into the center of our city, and to keep Shreveport’s musical legacy alive for generations to come.
Voting is open until September 15. Together, we can bring the music back to downtown Shreveport and keep the city’s rhythm alive.
