What to Know

Danville's Yell County Fair is an August fair in the Arkansas River valley, celebrating the cattle, timber, and Petit Jean River heritage of a county defined by Dardanelle Lake and the rugged terrain where the Ouachita Mountains and the Arkansas River valley meet in west-central Arkansas.

Before You Go

Danville is the Yell County seat — Dardanelle Lake (a large reservoir on the Arkansas River, popular for bass fishing) and the Petit Jean River valley with its distinctive sandstone bluffs and cedar glades create an outstanding natural landscape in this west-central Arkansas county.

On the Midway

Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and a community fair in the Petit Jean River valley and Ouachita Mountain foothill country of Yell County.
