About the Location

Scenic Highlights

Tucked along the Red River in downtown Shreveport, Louisiana, this urban park offers nice views alongside a variety of amenities.

The interactive water fountain features synchronized light and music shows that add a pleasant ambiance to the park.

Don't miss the 300-foot-long floating boat dock that lets you get up close with the river, or the impressive waterfall cascading over natural stone and lush greenery.

Look up and you'll spot something uniquely charming - lighted roses perched high above the park, adding an unexpected touch of whimsy. If you can swing an evening visit, you're in for a treat with the park's impressive lighting displays that transform the space after dark.

Things to Do

Take it easy with a leisurely stroll along the well-kept paths, spread out a blanket for a picnic, or simply find a quiet spot to watch the sun set over the river.

Got kids in tow? The water playground and splash pad are well-suited for cooling off during Louisiana's warmer months (which, let's be honest, is most of them).

When you need a breather, head to the shaded gazebo area - a welcome respite when the Southern sun is doing its thing.

The park isn't just about natural beauty, though. You can catch seasonal events, festivals, and performances at the outdoor stage and pavilion.

Local Connection

Riverview Park has deep roots in local history and offers some interesting insights into the area.

You'll come across it conveniently close to other notable spots like the Shreveport Aquarium and the Red River District.

As you wander the grounds, keep an eye out for various artwork displays that add a cultural dimension to your visit.

History buffs will appreciate the small museum and informative video about the Red River that shed light on the waterway's significance to the region.

Special Events

The park really shines during holidays with special celebrations, including some pretty spectacular fireworks displays and enhanced neon light shows for the 4th of July and other occasions.

The space regularly hosts concerts that take advantage of the excellent acoustics and picturesque riverfront setting.

Whether you're looking to get active outdoors, enjoy some peaceful river views, or join in community gatherings, Shreveport Riverview Park offers a variety of experiences for visitors.
