Events

Hillcrest Harvestfest

Get ready for a fun-filled day this Saturday at Hillcrest Harvestfest, the largest fall celebration in Central Arkansas, happening in the charming Hillcrest Historic Neighborhood of Little Rock.

• 🍂 A Community Celebration: Kavanaugh Blvd in Hillcrest will be closed for this year's event, which will provide space for over 100 vendors, food trucks, a beer garden, a pie contest, live music at the Lost Forty stage, children's entertainment, and, of course, the much-loved dog show.

• ❤️ A Festival with Heart: HarvestFest, a 501(c)(3) organization, has donated over $50,000 to The Allen School, its primary beneficiary, over the past seven years. The Allen School, serving Hillcrest for over 60 years, supports special-needs children up to age five, preparing them and their parents for kindergarten.
