The 10th Annual Arkansas State Chili Championship will be held from 12:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, April 11, at The Barn, 120 Shields Drive in Holiday Island.

Attendees can taste and vote for their favorite chili from three divisions: red chili, green chili, homestyle and people’s choice.

A total of $3,000 will be given in prize money for the winners. The top pick for red chili will receive $1,000 and will advance to the 2026 World Championship Chili Cook-Off, which hands out a grand prize of $15,000.

The April 11 event is sanctioned by The International Chili Society and proceeds will go to benefit People Helping People, a prescription drug assistance program. For more information, including how to enter, contact Steve Falkowski at 845-2353073, or at chiliskf@gmail.com.
