Holiday in Dixie is a multifaceted spring festival celebrating its 61st year in the Shreveport area, making it one of the oldest running festivals in Louisiana. HID provides cultural enrichment, family oriented activities, economic development, a celebration of The Louisiana Purchase and most importantly, a spirit of community involvement and pride. The spring festival running from April 17-April 26th is a full schedule of merriment and activities with “something for everyone”.


Holiday in Dixie 2009 is comprised of the ever popular Treasure Hunt, Neighborhood Block Party Day at the Carnival, the Classic Parade and the Carnival on the Riverfront at Shreveport's Festival Plaza. Listed by the ABA as one of the Top 100 events in North America, the festival is sponsored by community businesses, our sponsors and the members of the Holiday in Dixie Ambassadors.
