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. For information (and a Fanfare 1996 brochure and ticket order form), please
