Events in Arkansas celebrating the 2024 solar eclipse

Arkansas officials anticipate an influx of up to 1.5 million visitors from all over the United States. Although not every part of Arkansas is in the path of totality, much of the state will see at least 90% totality for the historic event. 

With all of Arkansas being impacted by the solar eclipse in some form, cities are putting a hold on the normal day-to-day and taking advantage of the day with special events. 

Here are the statewide events you can join on April 8 or leading up to this year’s solar eclipse.
