This weekend marks the Altus Grape Festival. Besides it making a good time to stop by the local wineries in the area for free tours, there will be plenty of fun events at City Park in Altus: grape stomps, food, music, crafts, street dances, amateur wine-making contest, Bacchus look-alike contest.

It runs until 11 p.m. tonight and runs from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Saturday and admission is free. Take Interstate 40 to exit 41, about an hour and a half to two hours from Little Rock.
