2009 is HERE!!! Eureka Springs!

A new year is upon us here in Eureka Springs! We've been very busy in the Special Events Office planning entertainment for the 2009 season. Music in Basin Spring Park starts in April every Saturday from Noon until 6pm and Sunday from noon until 4pm. Then starting in May we add music to Friday from noon until 6pm.

Starting in May we are also bringing back Dance in the Park After Dark two times a month! We will release the dates for the dances soon enough! Of course there will be Memorial Day, Labor Day and Columbus Day in Basin Spring Park as well.

In May we have some very special events planned! The Theme this year is World Cultural Arts and each week has a different theme:

Week 1: May 1st through May 10th is Spanish, South American and Native American influence. Crafters in the Park and music will be themed with this Spanish influence flare!

Week 2: May 11th through 17th is African influence with drummers and dancers in Basin Spring Park. The weekend of the 15th, 16th and 17th is also a Kids themed weekend in Basin Spring Park with many activities scheduled for the youngsters!

Week 3: May 18th through 25th is World Culture and will encompass Arts, crafts and music from all over the world.

Week4: May 26th through 31st is Americana influence with Eureka Springs Blues Weekend and Americana Arts and Crafts in Basin Spring Park.

May also sees our first two Dance in the Park After Dark scheduled for May 1st and May 15th.

On May 8th in the AUD Internationally Touring Act Del Castillo will be gracing the stage with their blend of Flamenco/Jazz/Blues/Rock music. Tickets will be on sale very soon!

We will be announcing more exciting news very soon! We are looking forward to a very entertainment packed year! If you have suggestions or ideas please feel free to send an e-mail to eurekaspringseventsoffice@gmail.com

Thanks Everyone for making Every Event in Eureka Springs Special!
