What is Fanfare? According to Webster's Dictionary, "Fanfare" is "a flourish of trumpets, a showy outward display." At Southeastern Louisiana University, we say it is a year's worth of culture and entertainment in just one captivating month.

Fanfare happens every October at Southeastern, traditionally swinging into action with a flourish of trumpets -- the trumpets as a cool jazz band playing for picnickers in a picturesque downtown park. The horns herald a special season of entertainment, a year's worth of culture and fun marching quick-step across four dazzling weeks. Southeastern and the College of Arts and Sciences designed Fanfare as a salute to the arts that enrich our souls, thrill our hearts and challenge our minds. Through Fanfare's astonishing array of events you sense extraordinary drama, hear delightful sounds, consider thought-provoking ideas and observe beautiful images. In a panoply of charm and wonder for all ages, performers and performances parade across Fanfare's stages with academia's pomp and wit, Broadway's shine and glitter, and Carnival's merriment and show.
