Exciting Events in Little Rock This Weekend
The vibrant and colorful SoMa Pride Parade and Festival is set to take over Little Rock this weekend, promising a day of celebration and fun for all. The parade kicks off at noon on Saturday, making its way along Main Street from 22nd Street to 12th Street. But the festivities don’t stop there – the street festival will continue from 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., featuring live music performances on the Main Stage, including acts like MonsterBoy Lives, The Baby Magic, and Butterfly from New Orleans.
In addition to the music, there will be an adults-only area with drag performances and beverages from local breweries, a kiddie corner for the little ones, over 100 vendors, and food trucks serving up delicious treats. Whether you’re there to show your pride, enjoy the music, or simply soak up the lively atmosphere, the SoMa Pride Parade and Festival is sure to be a day to remember.
But the fun doesn’t stop there – country singer-songwriter Dave Gibson will be taking the stage in El Dorado for “The Power of a Song,” a special showcase of his more than 40-year career in the music industry. And over at Murry’s Dinner Playhouse in Little Rock, audiences can catch a heartwarming performance of “Smoke on the Mountain,” a musical that tells the story of a preacher and a musical family during the Depression.
For those looking for a more thought-provoking experience, Riverside Actors Theatre will be presenting a staged reading of “Light Blind,” a gripping tale of a teenager navigating the complexities of the justice system after a tragic event. With a suggested donation of $10 at the door, this is a performance not to be missed.
With so much entertainment and excitement happening this weekend, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. So grab your friends and family, head out to one of these events, and make some unforgettable memories.
