SCHEDULE: Click Here for the full schedule of Riverfest entertainment, food vendors, and more! Our very own Brittany Styles sings in a fun cover band called Pick6 that will be performing on Saturday, July 6th on the Kaplan Professional Food and Beverage Stage from 5-7pm!

BE PREPARED: Please keep in mind that the band shell with the benches will still be under construction during Riverfest, so those acts will be moved to the North Stage. You will need to bring your own chair/blanket with you for enjoying those performances comfortably!

Did you know? Riverfest is a self-funded and volunteer-run festival. Proceeds from the festival are used to fund future Riverfest events, as well as to provide donations back to local groups and charities that provide volunteer services for the fest. Riverfest typically gives $50,000 to $60,000 back to the community each year. Since 1983, Riverfest has donated $1,118,000 to local charities and organizations. Amazing!
