PRIVATE & CORPORATE EVENTS
YOUR PARTY. YOUR PEOPLE. THE NEW WILLY D'S EXPERIENCE.
The new Willy D's opens October 2026 in the Argenta Arts District of North Little Rock, and we're now accepting private and corporate event inquiries.
Planning a company party, client event, fundraiser, celebration, conference gathering or private event?
From happy hour gatherings and reserved sections to The Mezz, full venue buyouts and our off-site Roadshow, we'll help you create an experience your guests will actually remember.
Tell us what you're planning and our team will follow up with availability and next steps.
HOST YOUR EVENT AT WILLY D'S
Willy D's is more than a place to meet for drinks.
It's a high-energy, interactive entertainment experience built around live music, requests, singalongs, comedy, crowd participation and a room full of people having a great time together.
For private and corporate groups, that means your event can feel completely different from a traditional ballroom, meeting room or restaurant gathering.
Whether you're planning a casual happy hour, entertaining clients, gathering a conference group or taking over the entire venue, we'll help you find the right experience for your crowd.
