ONGOING
EVENTS
(Scroll down for events listed by
date.)
Autumn
in Arkansas, with its splashy show of brilliant colors, is a very
popular travel season. Residents and visitors alike eagerly look forward
to the changing of the leaves and cooler temperatures. And, of course,
EVERYONE wants to know when the color peak will take place.
Unfortunately, there is no reliable method to predict this several
months out, but there is the next best thing – weekly fall color reports
from the very people who live in the areas and watch the leaves change
in person. The first report will appear on September 28 on
Arkansas.com
The fall season in Arkansas not only showcases scenic drives and
gorgeous colors, it is also a very busy time for festivals and events.
Numerous activities are scheduled each weekend from one corner of The
Natural State to the other. Information on these can be found in the
calendar of events on Arkansas.com
