The 10 Best Concerts & Shows in Arkansas, United States
Living up to its billing as “The Natural State”, the state is a nature wonderland with three national forests, nearly 9,000 miles of pristine streams and rivers, awe-inspiring settings in the Ozark and Quachita mountains and sparkling lakes.
The menu of vacation experiences is an exciting one. For great golf, spas, horse racing and the Hot Springs National Park, Hot Springs is the place to go. Outdoor enthusiasts love the Ozark Mountains where activities like canoeing, rafting, kayaking, fishing, hiking and rock climbing are popular. The mountain village of Eureka Springs, with its streets lined with Victorian homes, is brimming with boutiques, antique shops and art galleries. Wine enthusiasts love the Arkansas Wine Country, encompassing the towns of Paris, Ozark and Altus, where German style wines are produced. From its ancient mountains to the Delta flatlands leveled by the Mississippi River, the state has a diverse topography with numerous scenic drives. Try the Pig Trail, Ozark Highlands and Sylamore scenic byways in the Ozark National Forest designated by the U.S. Forest Service. Golfers love the state because greens fees are extremely affordable for great courses. A few excellent public access courses are Sage Meadows in Jonesboro, Stonebridge Meadows in Fayetteville and the Mountain Ranch Course in Fairfield Bay.

A great magic show, loved the up close and personal relationship with the audience! We've seen several magicians and Sean-Paul does an amazing job! Looking forward to taking our 7 year old granddaughter next week, she wants to see him cut his arm off and cut the woman in half! She's hoping the ghost talker will read her mind-good luck on that one!

What a outstanding experience! We’d been here a couple of times before and the plays were very well done, but familiarity with the movies done of A Christmas Carol left me wondering how they’d do it. Well, walking and seeing the set was impressive, it seemed no expense was spared to pull this off, and they did! A fantastic adaptation and creative presentation with outstanding performances by all the cast. I could not have been more impressed. I’m writing this now since we’re going back in a couple of days for another performance of a play and I’m looking forward to another outstanding experience!

Pocket Theatre is one of the strongest and best community theaters anywhere. The experience of the actors, directors and staff is second to none, and the productions they choose are challenging and first rate whether it’s a musical, drama or comedy. I’ve attended productions all over the country from New York to San Francisco and Hot Springs is so lucky to have a talented group such as this. Can’t wait for the next one.

Awesome place to visit! So many helpful and informative artists. Want to go back already. Many thanks to the printer (oh how I love books and the printed word!), the broom maker, the beeswax soap and candle maker, the textile expert and the docent at the log cabin for your time, knowledge and joy of your crafts!
