History
Springdale was formerly called Shiloh and was platted under that original name in 1866. In 1878, the town was incorporated with the name of Springdale.
In 2020, voters of the city of Bethel Heights decided to merge with Springdale after the city sanitation plant received several violations from the Arkansas Health Department. The city was eventually annexed on August 21, 2020.
An intense EF3 tornado struck the town on March 30, 2022, heavily damaging or destroying several structures and injuring seven people.
