Annual Free State of Yell Fest

The annual Free State of Yell Fest celebrates the heritage of our community, highlighting the immigrants that migrated to Dardanelle.  With a long history of being one of the State's leading immigration centers, which continues to this day, Dardanelle is proud of the Czechoslovakian, German and Hispanic populations that influence our Community.  Working with the Dardanelle Area Chamber of Commerce, local businesses, booster clubs, and civic organizations sponsor the carnival, entertainment and events, including a 4 Mile Run, Pancake Breakfast and a Yelling Contest.
