Legendary Return: ZZ Top Back to Shreveport in 2025

The Rock & Roll Hall of Famers are coming back to Shreveport for another ride in their legendary career. ZZ Top is coming back to Shreveport this November.

ZZ Top will be back at the Shreveport Municipal Auditorium, Thursday November 20th, 2025. It will be their first time back in Shreveport since 2021.

The Last Time ZZ Top Played In The Shreveport-Bossier Area

But they've been back to the Ark-La-Tex since then. They played Brookshire Grocery Arena in Bossier City in 2024. That night they appeared with Lynyrd Skynyrd on the "Sharp Dressed Simple Man Tour".

This upcoming ZZ Top date will be a stop on their "Elevation Tour", which kicked off earlier this month in Canada. The tour will be winding all across North America, with stops in Texas, Georgia, and Tennessee before coming to Shreveport.

How Many Times Has ZZ Top Played In Shreveport?

While this stop will be the first time ZZ Top is in Shreveport since 2021, it won't be the first time they've played the Municipal Auditorium. But the Municipal Auditorium does hold a "first" in the history of ZZ Top and Shreveport's past. The Muni was the first recorded Shreveport concert for ZZ Top. According to Setlist.fm, here are all of the registered concerts ZZ Top has played in the Shreveport-Bossier area:

Could ZZ Top Retire Soon?

Sadly, fans online have already started to consider another historical marker in the history between ZZ Top and Shreveport. Some fans have already pointed out on social media that this could be the last stop ZZ Top makes in Shreveport.

Longtime ZZ Top bassist Dusty Hill passed away in 2021, and some thought the band might wrap up touring after that. But founding members Billy Gibbons and Frank Beard have continued on. Both are now in their late 70s, and could conceivably decide to retire at any time.

So, if you think there's a chance that ZZ Top could retire before the next time they come through Shreveport, you should probably make it a point to see them live at the Municipal this November.
