I have to admit, when I began coming up with a list of cities to cover for these posts, I wasn’t super excited about Little Rock. In my mind, it isn’t really close to any exciting mountainous areas, it’s not close to the beach, and I guess in my limited thinking, I wasn’t sure what else I could find that would be fun for people to do. Well, consider me humbled, because I honestly considered if we could make a trip to Little Rock soon after all the things I found. The history you can find here is immense and profound, and there are also tons of great outdoor activities that you can enjoy alone or with your family. I hope this list inspires you to take a trip to Little Rock!

Top 25 Free Things to Do in Little Rock
Stop in at the Visitor Center at Historic Curran Hall
One of your first stops in Little Rock should be Curran Hall, built in 1842 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The interior is interesting because of how well it has been preserved with very little alterations, but it also houses the Little Rock Visitor Center. Don’t miss the outside, though—the gardens are breathtaking!
Go back in time at Little Rock Central High School National Historic Site
The only operating high school in nation designated as historic site, Central High School is the site of one of the most famous episodes of the Civil Rights movement. Walking the grounds is free. Free guided tours of the interior of the school are available during the week, but they recommend making reservations.
Watch the boats at Lake Maumelle
You can’t swim in Lake Maumelle, but you can enjoy the shoreline and wildlife around it. Pack a furgal picnic lunch!
Want to have a movie date??
Today only when you pay with Apple Pay for a Fandango ticket and use a new coupon code you’ll get $5 off your next movie ticket!
Use code APPLEPAYWED to get the discount at checkout. Don’t wait though there are a limited number of redemptions allowed.
Tip: You don’t have to use this for a movie today, instead pair it with deals in your area like Regal Cinema’s 50% off Tuesday tickets and plan a date night in the future! Fandango will let you buy tickets up to a month in advance in some areas.
My Plan to Stack The Deal:
Buy:
(2) Regal Cinema Tickets for next Tuesday, $6.99 per ticket
-$5 off with APPLEPAYWED
makes it $4.49 per ticket!
Note: Regal prices vary by theater, this is the price in my area on Tuesdays.
Giveaways are always fun and so are more chances to win! I’ve already given away (3) Amazon gift cards earlier this week, so let’s throw 4 more into the mix!!
