Doors open at 11 a.m., which means you can sleep in, grab a coffee for the road, and still roll in right on time. Admission is $10 for ages 13 and up and $5 for kids under 13. Activities run on tickets: $1 apiece, or $20 for an All-Access Pass. Got more than one kid with big plans? Do the math before you hit the gate.
A Kids’ Zone Built for Burning Off Energy
CS Bank sponsors the Kids’ Zone, and it’s stacked:
- Bouncy castle – the classic, for kids who haven’t stopped moving since breakfast
- Inflatable obstacle course – a race against siblings, friends, or the clock
- Dunk tank – take aim and hope your arm’s warmed up
- Carnival games – every game pays out in tickets, which cash in for prizes at the Prize Tent
- Face painting and Spin to Win – a pumpkin on the cheek and a shot at luck

A Hay Bale Maze for the 5-and-Under Crowd
The littlest festival goers get a maze all their own. Sponsored by Hart’s Family Center, the Hay Bale Maze is built for kids 5 and under. They pick their own turns and puzzle out the route, and it’s laid out so you can keep them in sight the whole time. Talk about a hay-day!
Three Bands on the Crescent Hotel Stage
The 1886 Crescent Hotel and Spa sponsors the Band Stage, where three local acts play the afternoon:
- Jesse Dean – 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
- The Mountain Gypsies – 1 to 2 p.m.
- Jeff Kearney’s BagWine Band – 2:30 to 3:30 p.m.

Seating is limited, so bring a blanket or a lawn chair and claim your spot.
S’mores, a Fire Truck, and a Craft Beer
Two of the day’s best attractions cost nothing: a bonfire with s’mores to take the chill off, and a visit from a local fire truck. Fall-themed concessions keep everyone fed, and grown-ups can grab a craft beer while the kids tackle the obstacle course one more time.
Makers and Artisans at the Vendor Marketplace
Local businesses, makers, and artisans set up shop in the Vendor Marketplace. Browse the booths between sets, or swing through after the kids finish trading tickets at the Prize Tent.
See you there, NWA.
