Welcome to the Greater Blytheville Area Chamber of Commerce

Welcome to Blytheville, Arkansas and the Greater Blytheville Area Chamber of Commerce. Often called the “gateway to the Arkansas Delta,” Blytheville combines the charms of small-town living with the accessibility of big city amenities, which are a mere hour away!

It is almost summer!

Spring was not so kind to the Annual Chamber Golf Tournament, when April showers got a little intense. The new date, June 23, moves the tourney into summer. Always a fabulous time, it starts with burgers and dogs at 11 a.m., followed by a 12:30 shotgun start. It is a 3-man scramble with all sorts of prizes, hole contests, and even mulligans! If you love golf, you will love the Chamber tournament!

The city celebrated on May 10 with the annual street festival, Mayfest, sponsored by Main Street Blytheville. And what a great day it was! Thousands of people meandered the serpentine that is Main Street, enjoying fried corn, funnel cakes, BBQ, burgers, hot dogs, walking tacos and all sorts of food fare. Games and contests, including raffles of great prizes, also filled the day. Shoppers hit local stores where merchants made buying more efficient with big sales, and most important, the weather cooperated--it was a beautiful spring day in Blytheville, Arkansas!

As summer approaches, life takes on a slow and easy pace--one of the south's many charms--but lots is going on. Visit the art exhibit at the Delta Gateway Museum, featuring the work of local physician, Sia Shahriari. Or take a trip out to the Arkansas Aeroplex and see baseball galore. Say good luck to an ANC choral group traveling soon to Chicago to work with one the nation's most renowned composers; or visit any area church on any given Sunday. Blytheville's great community of faith never slows down!
