Riverfront Park Belvedere

In 1986, the Belvedere in Riverfront Park was constructed north of what was then the Excelsior Hotel. It was built in commemoration of the sesquicentennial of Arkansas' statehood. This small, concrete gazebo-like structure serves as a performance space for all kinds of instrumental music. Though originally programmed by the City of Little Rock for classical and traditional instrumental music groups, recent years also transformed it into a favorite spot for garage bands and local musicians seeking an outdoor performance space.
