For almost forty years now, Shreveport has celebrated the abolition of slavery in the South with its Let the Good Times Roll Festival—a rousing testament to the life and freedom of the city's African American communities today. Presented by Rho Omega & Friends, Inc. in downtown Shreveport's Festival Plaza, the event will bring together the best of the local cuisine and arts scenes, as well as nonstop live music by artists such as Leela James, Too $hort, Keith Frank, Big Pokey Bear, and more. $25 per day; $65 for a weekend pass; VIP options available.
In addition, this year the festival will close out with a special Gospel concert at Morning Star Baptist Church, presented by Rho Omega and the local Gospel station KOKA. Celebrate the legacy of Black culture and resilience with special guests Joshua Douglas, Bishop William Murphy, Maranda Curtis, and the Glorious Praise Singers. 7 pm. $20–$50.
