River Market District

The River Market District is one of Arkansas’s fastest-growing tourist destinations and one of the most popular areas to live, work and play. From major conventions, concerts, and sporting events to playing host to the state’s most-visited landmark – the William J. Clinton Presidential Center and Park – the District has grown to be the heartbeat of downtown Little Rock.

Since 1996, the District has been transformed into the cultural and entertainment center for the state’s capital city, and an economic power hub for Arkansas. Over 1 million people visited the River Market District in 2008, and demographic information shows that nearly 8,000 people live and work within a five-block radius of the district. With an assortment of current retail options and new shops, businesses, and restaurants opening each year, the best days for the River Market District lie ahead.
