Juneteenth
Juneteenth is a celebration of freedom, culture, and community. In Little Rock, it is also a tradition.
For decades, the city has come together to honor Juneteenth through music, food, art, and shared experiences that reflect the richness of Black history and culture. From live performances and local artists to Black-owned restaurants and food vendors across the city, what began as a moment of remembrance has grown into a meaningful, citywide celebration rooted in pride, connection, and joy.
