Bluegrass & Fried Chicken Festival
Meeting Place: Ozark Highlands Theater & Skillet Restaurant
This summer, get away to the Ozarks for the Bluegrass & Fried Chicken festival at the Ozark Folk Center State Park in scenic Mountain View, Arkansas for two days of timeless music and good old-fashioned fun on August 21 & 22.
Festival tickets for both days include a Friday evening concert, Saturday matinee, and Saturday evening show at the park's 1,000-seat indoor music venue, Ozark Highlands Theater. Tickets also include admission to the Craft Village & Gardens for more live music, demonstrations at 20 artisan shops, and family fun from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The park's scenic hilltop restaurant will serve its famous fried chicken buffet in-between bluegrass shows at the Ozark Folk Center's 1,000-seat indoor music venue on Friday and Saturday. (All-you-can-eat buffets are sold separately.)
