In Little Rock for New Years Eve, the celebrations celebrations revolve around the local hotels, bars and restaurants, with a great selection of parties to choose from.
If you're spending some time here over the festive season, then you'll find that Little Rock is packed with activities, so best pack a pair of trainers/sneakers! Get out there and explore Big Dam Bridge, jump on a bike and cycle your way along The Arkansas River Trail, an 88 mile loop around the state, or perhaps you might want to begin with the 15.6 mile loop starting at Clinton Presidential Bridge to Big Dam Bridge and around back to the Clinton Presidential Bridge (if you're not a keen cyclist, you can always walk it!).
There's great hiking trails in Pinnacle Mountain State Park, climb to the top of the mountain (there are 2 trails, family friendly West Summit and the challenging East Summit) for some glorious panoramic views. It's also a great place to bring your bike with a few mountain bike trails to choose from.
Wander along to the River Market to explore the antique stores and visit the Ottenheimer Market Hall for some wonderful food. There are speciality foods and artisan treats to be had here, so come hungry!
Take a tour around the Rock Town Distillery (the state's first legal distillery since prohibition) there are tours every day with little taster thrown in there too if you are over 21! There is also the River Rail Electric Streetcar that you can hop on to see many of Little Rocks landmarks.
