Love music? How about food? And art?

The Arkansas Cornbread Festival has been serving up all this and more since 2011. After a year away, the festival is back – and this year, it’s being built with community at its center more intentionally than ever.

The amateur cornbread contest returns, putting home cooks and family recipes to the test alongside our professional competitors. Local musicians and entertainers fill the day with sound, local makers and artisans showcase their work, and food trucks and area restaurants keep everyone fed. With the Cosmo Kids Zone, even the littlest festers find big fall fun.

Admission is free, but to taste every competitor’s cornbread, grab a Tasting Ticket — your vote helps decide who takes home the People’s Choice Award.

Save the date: Saturday, November 7, 2026. Come discover the magic of cornbread in Little Rock.
