Giveaway: Stomp, Sept. 7 at Walton Arts Center

This giveaway is now closed. Congrats to the winners, Tracy and Jessie.

They drum. They dance. They’re Stomp, and they’re coming to the Walton Arts Center for a series of shows Sept. 7-9.

For those who aren’t familiar, Stomp is an eight-member troupe of drumming freaks that use everything but conventional drums to create incredible rhythmic soundscapes combined with stimulating movement and visual comedy.

In other words, it’s possibly the coolest drum circle you’ve ever seen. Plus jokes.

We happen to have two pairs of tickets to giveaway to the opening night performance. Try to win them.

How to enter

Stomp is the second show in Walton Arts Center’s 2012 season, and considering TheatreSquared is kicking off their season this weekend, the football Hogs are in town, and the students are back at the UA, Fayetteville is reaching what we consider to be near full bloom right now.

Leave a comment below telling us your favorite thing about fall in Fayetteville, and you’re entered.

What you’ll win

Two (2) lucky winners will each win two (2) tickets to the Stomp performance on Friday, Sept. 7 at the Walton Arts Center.

A few rules (read ‘em carefully):

  • You may only enter this specific contest once.
  • This contest is open to anyone anywhere except Fayetteville Flyer writers, Walton Arts Center employees, and their immediate family members.
  • Contest is open until 12 p.m. CST on Friday, Aug. 31
    Make sure you leave a valid e-mail address when filling out the comment form since that’s how we’ll contact you if you’ve won. Once we notify the winners, you’ll have 24 hours to respond via email to claim your prize.
  • You’ll have to provide us with your first and last name (if you win) and then be prepared to show a valid photo ID when picking up your tickets.

Thanks to the Walton Arts Center for sponsoring this contest. For more information about this performance or to purchase tickets, visit waltonartscenter.com.

    There’s nothing like spending fall in Fayetteville calling the Hogs with 72,000 fans at Razorback Stadium!

    Fall in Fayetteville is the best. With the change in colors and football, what is not to love about fall in Fayetteville?

    I love Hogs football of course. But the other great thing about fall in Fayetteville is just how beautiful all the colors are.

  14. Jesse says:

  16. Amy F. says:

    Best part of fall in Fayetteville, besides the sound of the crowd calling the Higs at Reynolds Stadium, would be the leaves of the trees. There is nothing more beautiful then the red, orange and yellow leaves that blanket the yards and streets of Fayetteville. Oh and the weather! You can’t get more perfect then fall in the hills if Fayetteville!

    Halloween in the historic district. Not only is it the best weather for sitting out on the porch, but It’s like my favorite holiday still exists like it does in a TV special.

    Definitely the cooler weather and changing colors. I can’t think of a more gorgeous place than NWA during this time of the year.

  23. Jessie Green says:

    My favorite part of fall is the cooler weather, and the return of Razorback football!

    Orginally from Canada, I never got to experience fall football season and now, it is my favorite time of year! That, alongside with the beauty of Fay in the fall makes this city a great place to be :)

    Sleeping with the windows open, thunderstorms, campfires, leaves blowing across the ground, amazing trees everywhere, pulling my favorite sweaters back out, the town after a win from the Hogs…how can I pick just 1?

  26. Brian says:
    Wednesday, Aug 29, 2012 at 10:22 pm

    What is there not to like about Fall time in Fayetteville. The scenerY is absolutely beautiful day & night, the shows and events of the season are always amazing & fun, and the community comes together with life as the weather changes bringing everything full circle. Fayetteville is such a great place to be for all ages. This year I look forward to that beautiful city view of Fall hued trees as I drive into town for another weekend filled with fun & excitement. So gLad Stomp is coming in September, my husband and I missed them @ their first appearance.

  37. J.R. says:

    The roar of the crowd at Razorback football games and the roar of motorcycles at BBB. And being outdoors in the cooler weather.

  38. Mighty Math Man says:
    Thursday, Aug 30, 2012 at 8:48 am

    I’m most excited to introduce my son to all that Fayetteville has to offer this fall now that his is old enough to enjoy most of it. Hoping to enjoy his first Razorback football game, Bikes Blues & BBQ, hike around Mount Sequoyah, and hopefully a show or 2 at the WAC!

  42. Richard says:

    School being back in session causes such great support to any event. Add that to the high quality of people in the community and even going to the mall is entertaining this time of year.
    Sure the leaves and weather are at their best, and Football is incredible, but I vote the people as my favorite in the fall.
    Just rattling off a few other great things…
    Corn Maze, Ferrari’s at Crystal Bridges on the 7th, craft fairs everywhere, BBB, SoNA, etc…

  45. Brian D. says:
    Thursday, Aug 30, 2012 at 10:31 am

    It’s got to be football games, surrounded by tailgating, leaves changing, and cooler weather…especially this year.

  46. blarrrgh says:
    Thursday, Aug 30, 2012 at 11:04 am

    The way the trees on my street turn all shades of red and gold and that crisp smell in the air that tells you that winter is coming. Fayetteville is stunning in the Fall.

    School resumes, students return to class, leaves change color, Bikers converge, and Hogs dominate Saturdays.
