Every stage in NWA

The oldest live-music room in Arkansas — booking bands on Dickson Street since 1927. Indoor stage, covered patio stage, and a crowd that shows up on a Tuesday.

The corridor's big outdoor amphitheater, and the reason national tours route through Northwest Arkansas. Lawn seats are the best value; get there early for parking.

A former cheese plant turned contemporary art space — galleries, a festival lawn, studios for family workshops, and a tower bar with the best view in town.

Touring Broadway, dance, comedy, and the region's most-programmed proscenium stage — a block off Dickson Street.

A listening room inside a working guitar gallery, just off the Bentonville square. Small, loud when it wants to be, and genuinely about the music.

A Rogers listening room and music school with a steady schedule of local and touring acts.

Eureka's hardest-working stage — music five-plus nights a week in a room that fits maybe a hundred people, plus a kitchen open late.

A neighborhood coffeehouse that books something almost every night of the week — the Thursday open mic is an institution.

A Bentonville music room (the former JJ's space) with a rotating local-and-regional schedule.
