Local Tips

Yellville is the Marion County seat — the Wild Turkey Festival (held each October in Yellville) and the Bull Shoals-White River tailwater trout fishery (internationally renowned among fly fishermen for trophy rainbow and brown trout) make Marion County a remarkable outdoor and cultural destination.

What You'll Find There

Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and a community fair in the rolling Ozark hill country above the White River and Bull Shoals Lake.

The Fair

Yellville's Marion County Fair is a July fair in the White River valley of north-central Arkansas, celebrating the cattle, fishing, and Ozark heritage of a county defined by Bull Shoals Lake and the White River — home to one of the most extraordinary trout fisheries in the central United States, where massive rainbow and brown trout thrive in the cold tailwaters below Bull Shoals Dam.
