The Arkansas Extreme Outdoors Expo is a high-energy celebration of outdoor culture, recreation, and Arkansas-style entertainment. Built for enthusiasts, families, and the broader outdoor community, the Expo brings together tradition, creativity, and local pride in one immersive event.

​

New for this year, the Expo will feature a UTV Show & Shine competition, where custom UTVs are judged on appearance, creativity, craftsmanship, and overall style. From custom finishes and lighting to wheels, tires, and accessories, this first-year competition will showcase standout builds and set the stage for future off-road excitement.

​

Historically, the Expo has included live bands, a kid's corner, and an average of 75 vendor booths, creating a full-scale, family-friendly environment. Attendees can also look forward to multiple prize drawings and giveaways, offering even more ways to engage and win throughout the event. The Expo is actively working to confirm additional entertainment, including live rodeo events, with details to be announced as plans are finalized.

​

Past Expos have also featured special guest appearances, such as Miss Arkansas and Big Sarge from Fishing Arkansas, reflecting the Expo’s strong connection to Arkansas’s outdoor and sporting community. Guest appearances for this year will be announced as they are confirmed.

The Arkansas Extreme Outdoors Expo is made possible through the support of multiple sponsors and partners. As the event continues to grow, additional sponsor involvement allows for expanded attractions, enhanced experiences, and greater community impact.

​

Plans are currently underway to host this year’s Expo at Hestand Stadium in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, though the venue is not yet finalized. Final location details will be shared once confirmed.

Whether you’re showcasing a custom UTV build, enjoying live entertainment, exploring vendor booths, participating in prize drawings, or bringing the whole family for a day of fun, the Arkansas Extreme Outdoors Expo offers an established event with exciting new additions and a clear vision for growth.
