Enjoy Responsibly - What You Need To Know

Main Street Ozark with the City of Ozark is proud to introduce the 'On The River' Entertainment District - a walkable space where adults 21 and older can enjoy alcoholic beverages in a designated 'On The River' cup, while wearing an 'On The River' wristband, outdoors while exploring shops, parks, community events, and participating businesses within the boundaries of the Entertainment District. 

This initiative promotes tourism, supports small businesses downtown, and provides a fun, family-friendly atmosphere where locals and visitors alike can connect and enjoy historic downtown Ozark, AR.
