Security Is Top Priority for Humor and Harmony Festival in Shreveport
SHREVEPORT, LA - Shreveport leaders are preparing for a massive event in our community in August. The Humor and Harmony Festival is expected to bring thousands of guests to our community.

What Will the Event Include?
Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson is bringing this huge event to several venues in the community. It will include comedy, music and all kinds of fun events.
Shreveport Mayor Tom Arceneaux says this will be like hosting the Independence Bowl, the Red River Revel and a Mardi Gras Parade all at one time. He says "it certainly is a challenge to plan and coordinate all of the events that are being planned."
Check Out the List of Events
Thursday, August 8: Kickoff the Humor & Harmony weekend with an exciting performance at Shreveport’s Independence Stadium.
Friday, August 9: Experience the thrill of a 3-on-3 pro basketball game at the former Expo Hall, 400 Clyde Fant Parkway.

With a shorter shot clock and faster pace, expect energetic and exhilarating play.
