Gotta Catch 'Em All 🚴

Gotta Catch ‘Em All! As one of the largest Pokémon trade shows in the country, the event will feature themed candy, collectibles, cosplay, and meet-and-greets with industry pros and voice actors.

Card Flippers: From trivia and panel discussions to gaming tournaments and a cosplay contest, there’s something for every kind of fan, whether you grew up on Pikachu or just caught the Pokémon bug.

The Power of Mother Nature: The four-minute film follows an overworked young professional who finds peace through mountain biking, capturing the joy of adventure and the restorative power of nature.

Creativity Meets Sport: Jaunt is one of 87 films chosen for the nine-day film festival, which includes 17 world premieres and 10 North American premieres, highlighting BLK ELK as a rising name in outdoor filmmaking right here in Northwest Arkansas.

Time To Shine: Created by the acclaimed Klip Collective and designed exclusively for the museum’s North Forest, this immersive outdoor experience features six large-scale light and sound installations that explore shifting landscapes of time and nature in the Ozark woods.

Cool Nights, Bright Lights: It’s the perfect way to enjoy these cool fall evenings, roaming under the stars as creative projections and a custom soundtrack bring the forest to life. The show runs Wednesdays through Sundays.

Magnificence on Markham: Opened in late 2024, the 30-acre hilltop hotel offers a modern stay featuring a member’s club, premier restaurant and bar, and luxury hospitality. This weekend’s event invites the community to experience one of Fayetteville’s most scenic gathering spots.

Taste & See: Guests can enjoy tastings from Executive Chef Justin Murrah, live music by Vikki McGee, a vinyl listening lounge, signature cocktails, and self-led outdoor experiences throughout the property.

Coming Home: Sebastian and Shakira come from the Crown Ridge Tiger Sanctuary in Missouri, following its recent closure, marking the second time in two years that TCWR has been entrusted by another sanctuary for the care of its animals.

No Moe Joe Exotic: Both tigers have histories connected back to the Eureka Springs sanctuary. After being rescued from Tiger King Park in 2021, Sebastian now reunites with his offspring at TCWR, while Shakira rejoins her sister after being separated for years.
