Jim Green booked concerts in Memphis for decades, from punk rock club shows to U2 at the Liberty Bowl.
The Fort Smith Convention Center, including the ArcBest Performing Arts Center, is reopen to events beginning June 1st.
We are excited about the opportunity to once again host events that fall within the guidelines and directives of the Arkansas Department of Health and we invite any and all events that fit the criteria to contact us! Currently, the Convention Ctr is allowed to host public or private events of up to 50 people, provided that reduced venue capacity limits aren’t exceeded. We will ask and expect our clients to ensure social and physical distancing measures are followed, and ask that face coverings are worn in accordance with current directives. We will continue monitoring changes to guidelines and directives as they are announced by the Arkansas Department of Health, and adjust our event policies accordingly.
In preparation for reopening, Convention Ctr staff have been deep cleaning & sanitizing all event spaces, public areas and equipment. Staff will wipe down/sanitize all high contact surfaces prior to, during and following all events. Our sanitizing regimen will include the use of an oxidizing disinfectant aerosol ‘fog’ that will be sprayed/discharged throughout all event spaces and high traffic areas before and after events. Staff will wear masks at all times while in our event spaces. Appropriate signage depicting Arkansas Dept. of Health guidelines and directives will be clearly posted at all entrances, and entrances/exits will be clearly marked on the floor.
Hope to see you soon!
