There’s a music and mountain sports festival happening in Fayetteville this weekend. The Homegrown Festival has moved from the Mulberry to Fayetteville this year, and it’ll kick off at Kessler Regional Park on Friday night. The fun starts at 4:30 p.m. with Alaina Blake & Dylan Hawf, followed by Jon Stickley Trio, and Arkansauce. It’s free to attend, too.

There’s a huge show at the AMP on Friday night as well with country stars Chris Stapleton, Marty Stuart, and Brent Cobb. It’s totally sold out, so hope you got your tickets already.
