I%26#39;m thinking of attending a nursing conference October 4-6 in Rogers. Can anyone tell me when War Eagle is this year? And how far from the Embassy Suites in Rogers? How much drive time to Eureka Springs from Embassy Suites in Rogers? Thanks so much!
War Eagle Festival...how far from Rogers?
Unfortunately you will miss the War Eagle Fair if you come Oct 4-6. The dates in 07 are 18-21 Oct. It is maybe 30-35 miles from where you will be staying but you might want to allow an hour and 15 minutes to an hour and a half to get through there in peak traffic hours. (Sunday morning is normally the least crowded time). The Fair people recommend going Hwy 412 East from Springdale for better traffic flow, though that is not the shortest mileage.

Your conference will coincide with the fair. War Eagle will be aprox 15 miles east off Hgw 12. Eureka Springs is aprox 40 miles east on hgw 62. You do not have to leave the hotel however as there will be an indoor fair next door at the new convention center. If this is your first visit to our area, prepare to fall in love with North west Ark. Wife and I did 16 years ago moving fron Dyer Co Tn. Enjoy your visit
Sorry about last post. Wife who keeeps up with these things first said spring fair was3rd weekend in May and fall show was Ist in Oct. The reverse is true as other post indicated. Sorry bout that.
I checked with the Fair manager and confirmed the dates for 18-21 October 07. They also highly recommend the 412 East route during Fair times.
