About This Event
River Jam is getting a little different feel this year, and we think you're going to love it. Come spend the day with us at Pop's Revival on the Current, right on the banks of the Current River at Riverfront Park in Van Buren. It's a full day about family, friends, faith, and community.
The Festival and Car Show kick off at 10 AM. Walk the Largest Car Show in the Ozarks, catch a ride with our friends at Livin Large Monster Trucks, browse the vendors and craft booths, grab something good from the food trucks, and turn the kids loose on all the family fun. Live music plays throughout the day.
Concert gates open at 4 PM. As the sun sets over the river, settle in for an unforgettable evening with American Idol runner-up Jordan McCullough and special guests. Live gospel and country under the stars.
Bring a blanket or a lawn chair, gather up your people, and come celebrate what makes small-town America so special. We can't wait to see you on the Current.

Pop's 3rd Annual Fall Festival Pageant
Our Fall Festival Pageant is a vintage-inspired celebration — lace, autumn light, and the simple joy of watching our little ones take the stage. Wrapped in the feeling of simpler days, it's a warm, welcoming morning made for families.
From tiny hands to confident young hearts, we celebrate the beauty God has placed in every child — with dignity, with joy, and with the kind of care you'd give something treasured and passed down through the family. Every child is honored just as they are.
