 The
Hope/Hempstead County Chamber of Commerce sponsors Free Bluegrass
Festivals at various times throughout the year including our big
spring festival in May. One day events are set for February
and November of each year. There is never a charge to attend any
of the shows. Those attending should bring
their lawn chairs for the May festival. The Chamber provides a basic
concession stand featuring
charcoal grilled hamburgers (the Chamber buys their meat at Barry's
Grocery in downtown Hope), chips, popcorn,
 moon-pies, coffee, and R.C. Cola
products. Those attending are urged to visit Hope's many fine
restaurants. An on-site RV park is
available for campers to the Festival. The RV spots with full
hook-ups rent for $15 per night. For RV information, call the Hope
Parks Department at 870-777-7500 or e-mail hopetourism@cablelynx.net.
Information on the festival is available from the Chamber of
Commerce at 870-777-3640 or at
