Revel in the captivating Christmas on Caddo Fireworks Festival on the banks of Caddo Lake in Oil City’s Earl Williamson Park on Saturday, December 6th.

The festival will kickoff at 3:30 p.m., followed by the fireworks display by Zambelli at 6:30 p.m.

The annual festival will feature the best in local entertainment, in addition to delicious food, comical clowns, creative arts and crafts, and much more!

Children will be amazed by the clowns, games, lights, and of course Santa Claus. He will make his way to the festival, bearing a gift for each child at the event. Children may also have their picture taken with Jolly Old St. Nicholas.

“This event gives the people of north Caddo Parish something to enjoy with their families and friends,” said Festival Organizer Mary Dunn. “The event is free to all and the fireworks and decorations will be wonderful.”

Christmas on Caddo Fireworks Festival, Inc. was formed 14 years ago as a partnership between the Vivian Chamber of Commerce and the Oil City Rotary Club.

The organizations invited all 10 towns in northwest Caddo Parish to join together to plan the free event with fireworks, food, entertainment, Santa Claus and activities for children with a goal of serving the people of North Caddo and the surrounding area.

Those towns are Belcher, Blanchard, Gilliam, Hosston, Mira, Ida, Mooringsport, Oil City, Rodessa and Vivian.

Take I-20 to I-220, exit Highway 1 and 71 North. Take Highway 1 North toward Oil City. The event is in Earl Williamson Park on Caddo Lake at Oil City, LA. Locals can head north up Highway 1 to Oil City.
