For the first time since 2019, Artsfest, presented by Great Southern Bank, is returning to Historic Walnut Street in Downtown Springfield!
The Springfield Regional Arts Council and Downtown Springfield Association will host southwest Missouri’s largest outdoor arts festival May 1-2. The festival will be open 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Sunday. Admission is $5 per person, with children ages 5 and under admitted for free. Tickets for all patrons, including children, should be purchased in advance. Want to see the list of artists, performers and food vendors? Download the brochure now!
The safety and security of all artists, vendors, patrons and volunteers remain the highest priority for DSA and SRAC staff. With that in mind, Artsfest will have several protocols in place.
The Artsfest team has been in communication with the City of Springfield and the Springfield-Greene County Health Department as it develops these mitigation plans.
The biggest change will be to ticketing procedures. Tickets will be sold in two-hour flights, ensuring Artsfest is never over capacity. Artsfest patrons are encouraged to buy tickets in advance to ensure entry at their preferred day and time. This will allow for better contact tracing, and fewer cash transactions will minimize contact between guests and volunteers.
Great Southern Bank is once again the presenting sponsor for Artsfest on Historic Walnut Street. Other sponsors making this event possible include DeLong Plumbing Heating and Air Conditioning, Heart of America, Kum & Go, Renewal by Andersen and SS&B Heating and Cooling. More sponsors will be announced in the coming weeks.
