Calendar of Arkansas Events »
Arkansas's festivals and events are about as varied as its river-strewn landscape, where the Delta meets the mountains. And as wide-ranging
as your interests. Into racing? Arkansas has thoroughbred,
dog and
auto racing Too conventional for your tastes? OK, how about toad, tiller, outhouse or cardboard boat racing?
Arkansans love to celebrate the harvest, as evidenced by peach, tomato, watermelon, grape and purple hull pea festivals.
There are also steak cook-offs, Greek food festivals, chili-cooking contests, and of course lots of barbecues and catfish fries.
Is music more your thing? The King Biscuit Blues Festival is one of the largest outdoor blues festival in the nation,
but you can also hear jazz, rock 'n' roll, country and bluegrass or even the symphony and the opera. Into the arts?
Choose between documentary film, fine arts, crafts or theatrical festivals. If you've chosen The Natural State to experience its great
outdoors, you might want to come during a mountain biking, hiking or canoeing event. And sportsmen will find what they want at events
such as Stuttgart's Annual World's Championship Duck Calling Contest and Wings Over the Prairie Festival or at bass fishing tournaments
held throughout the year.
The bottom line is that Arkansas has an event with your name on it. And every region of the state celebrates its unique heritage and
history through events that bring people together for fun, food and fellowship.
