Head to a state-wide party and have some fun at the Arkansas State Fair. The festival has it all - food, drinks, music, carnival rides, a livestock show, professional bull riding, a beauty pageant, dozens of contests, shopping, shows and more. Plan to spend a couple of days visiting the fair, because you just can't experience it all in one day.

Party from dusk until dawn at the Electric Cowboy. The bar offers nightly drink specials so even ballers on a budget can get their drink on while dancing the night away. Get ready to boogie to the best in Top 40, hip-hop, pop, rock, and country - it won't take long for you to make the Electric Cowboy your weekend nightlife spot.

Tour the Arkansas State Capitol and get a closer look at the state's history and government operations. The beautiful building is almost 100 years old and features portraits and bronze busts of past governors, murals, the official state seal, and an exquisite cupola covered in 24-karat gold, among other attractions and facets of interest. While visiting the capitol, be sure to walk the grounds around the building. The land surrounding the capitol holds various memorial statues and figures, along with flourishing gardens.
