Shreveport's premier comic convention, Geek'd Con, is gearing up for its 10th-anniversary celebration this August 22nd-24th, 2025, at the Shreveport Convention Center. Over the past decade, this fan-favorite event has not only brought over 160 celebrities to Northwest Louisiana but has also generated an estimated economic impact of over $12 million for the Shreveport region, drawing visitors from across the United States.
Data compiled from NOAA shows which Louisiana parishes are most likely to experience tornadic activity. Some of those parishes have already had touchdowns this year.
The adventure kicks off from a towering 60-foot start platform, providing panoramic views of the Maurepas Swamp, Lake Ponchartrain, and even the distant New Orleans skyline.
