2025 Frontier Day
Frontier Day began in the 1980s. To celebrate Plainview's centennial, the Plainview Beautification Committee revived it in 2007 and continued for another eight years through 2015.
In September 2023, the Plainview AR Community Events (aka PACE) revived Frontier Day again.
​
Frontier Day is a time for the town to come together to celebrate the old days and the old ways of living. It's a fun-filled festival that celebrates the town's history with mobile cafes, shopping vendors, a parade, live entertainment, food, games, and fun for the whole family.
​
We are excited to announce that Frontier Day will return next year, on October 25, 2025, and we’re making some exciting changes, too. One of the biggest changes we are making involves not only changing the date but also extending the hours.
To give everyone more time to enjoy the day, we’re extending the event hours with shopping from 10 AM to 5 PM, followed by a live band playing from 6 PM to 8 PM.
Stick around, read our Blog, and follow us on Facebook for more exciting announcements coming your way on the 2025 Frontier Day festivities.

Frontier Day Decor
On Plainview's 100th anniversary in 2007, the City decided to recreate an old tradition within the small town. Frontier Day was a celebration for what Plainview is at heart: It is a historical place where its best days were the old days. To give tourist a feel of this, the town built small old-fashioned buildings that were made to look like an old wild west town from the early 1900s. The City's Beautification Committee keeps the town decorated so beautifully throughout the year. Drive through the little town of Plainview any day and you are sure to see a few tourists, even locals, standing in the Old Frontier Town taking pictures and wondering what it would have been like back in those days.
