Riverfest 2011 is Almost Here!

It is almost Memorial Day Weekend, and the Riverfest folks have done it again!  The musical line-up is fabulously diverse, with fantastic bands and artists. Both sides of the river will be lined with musical talent minutes away from Robinwood.

The activities begin Friday, May 27 around 6 PM and finish LATE Sunday, May 29th.  With acts like Poison, Big Smith, BareNaked Ladies, Nelly, and the Charlie Daniels Band, there is something for everyone.

Need something to do between shows?  Hit the Kid Zone.  Run a 5K.  There is even a gaming area to show your skills!

Anyway you look at it, Riverfest is what is happening in Little Rock for Memorial Day Weekend.

Staycations in Little Rock, AR

Why would anyone consider Little Rock, Arkansas a good location for a Staycation?  Are you kidding me?

Little Rock offers so many wonderful options, and because of the size of the city, relatively close together.

Like the outdoors?  Climb Pinnacle Mountain in the morning and rent a bike in the afternoon.  Walk the River Path and enjoy the beauty of the Arkansas River –  from the middle.  The Big Damn Bridge offers an incredible view!

Big name concerts play a Verizon Arena all the time, pick a favorite and spend time in the River Market while you’re waiting.  Live music abounds at Little Rocks restaurants and clubs.  The Ark. Repertory Theater presents wonderful traveling shows.  We even have a long standing dinner theater called Murry’s for those who want a taste of local actors!

Love museums?  The Arkansas Art Center, Historic Arkansas Museum, William Jefferson Clinton Presidential Museum, (to name just a few!) can easily fill several days.

What is your pleasure?  Find it in Little Rock!
