About this Event

Gala for Good: Best Night of the Year 2026, presented by the Good Samaritan Clinic, is coming soon to the Kay Rodgers Park Expo Center in Fort Smith! Join us on Thursday, April 9, for an unforgettable evening of entertainment featuring a true Arkansas original: country music superstar Tracy Lawrence.

We are especially excited to welcome Tracy back to his home turf. Raised right here in the Natural State, Tracy is a hometown boy who never forgot his roots even as he rose to the top of the charts. With over 13 million albums sold and 22 combined Billboard Top 10 singles—including timeless hits like "Time Marches On" and "Paint Me A Birmingham"—Tracy Lawrence remains one of the most iconic voices in country music. We can’t wait for him to bring that signature Arkansas spirit and legendary stage presence to our stage for such a vital cause.
