While technically Shreveport Derby Day is about horse racing and in particular the Kentucky Derby, let's be honest it is so much more than that! On Saturday, May 5th from 2pm - 6pm it is time to break out the big hats and fancy clothes for a very unique event in Shreveport at the R.W. Norton Art Gallery.

So besides the incredible fashion, what can you expect from this event? This year there will be live music from Nashville's DeRobert & the Half-truths, as well as lawn games, a cigar lounge, amazing food and drinks and of course a live simulcast of the Kentucky Derby. This year the after party will be at Superior Steakhouse and there will be Derby Day drink specials.

This is the perfect springtime event for anyone looking to experience the derby lifestyle. Tickets are limited and are sure to sell out so do not want to wait to get yours.
