About State Fair of Louisiana
Welcome to the State Fair of Louisiana at Hirsch Memorial Coliseum, part of the Louisiana State Fairgrounds in Shreveport. Known for the LRCA Finals Rodeo, the state’s largest livestock show, and a lineup of live music and center-stage entertainment, this venue offers a reliable, straightforward ticket experience—no fuss, just clear details and easy access. The arena, officially Hirsch Memorial Coliseum, can host up to 10,000 guests for events, and the fair runs across 14 days with a variety of performances and exhibits.
Whether you’re planning a rodeo night, a concert, or a family fair day, we’ve got you covered with seating info, parking details, transit options, and nearby hotel and restaurant recommendations to help you secure your plans with confidence.
Venue details: State Fair of Louisiana grounds sit at 3701 Hudson Avenue in Shreveport, LA 71109. The arena is publicly branded as George's Pond for hockey contexts, but the facility remains Hirsch Memorial Coliseum on the fairgrounds. Parking at the fair is free during the run, and SporTran provides local transit service with routes that support fair visitors. For lodging and dining, we highlight affiliate-friendly options nearby, including Bally's Shreveport and Live! Casino Hotel, as well as Courtyard by Marriott Shreveport Airport, Holiday Inn Express & Suites Shreveport/South, and Hampton Inn & Suites Shreveport/Bossier City. Map details for 2026 are forthcoming as the official fair map is “on the way.”
Tip: Secure your seats early for popular dates, arrive with time to spare, and plan your route using local transit or rideshare. We’ve got you with up-to-date event info, seating charts, and trusted partner recommendations so you can focus on enjoying the show.
