A date is set for the 49th edition of the Radiance Technologies Independence Bowl, as Shreveport’s annual college football bowl game will kick off on Tuesday, December 30 at 1 p.m. CST on ESPN.
“The December 30th afternoon game should provide us with a great opportunity to promote the Independence Bowl, Radiance Technologies and the Shreveport-Bossier community on the national stage,” said 2025 Independence Bowl Foundation Chair Sarah Giglio. “We look forward to hosting an exciting Bowl Week for fans after the Christmas holiday and creating an electric atmosphere around Independence Stadium on game day.”
The December 30th game date is the latest game date for the Independence Bowl since 2013, which was played on December 31. This will be the third time in the game’s history that it will be played on December 30 (2007 and 2005).
The Radiance Technologies Independence Bowl continues to have a major impact on the Shreveport-Bossier community each year, driving revenue to the area and providing exposure about the area to a national audience. The Independence Bowl brings around $9 million in direct and indirect spending to the area and provides a total benefit of around $30 million each year.
The average paid attendance over the last seven Independence Bowls has been 30,180 fans, topping out at 34,283 last year. The Radiance Technologies Independence Bowl has also averaged 2.17 million viewers over the past seven games.
