2025 Arkansas Dark-Sky Festival

The 2025 Arkansas Dark-Sky Festival, hosted by the Arkansas Natural Sky Association, returns for another weekend under the stars!

This event will be two days & two nights alongside picturesque Bear Creek, just off Highway 65 south of the Buffalo River, an International Dark-Sky Park.

During the day, there will be presentations, hikes, and other activities for adults and children. Each night, we will rediscover the night sky as our ancestors knew it, complete with guided constellation tours and telescopic views of celestial objects under the Summer Milky Way.

Keep an eye on this event page for more information as its released.
