THREE RIVERS FESTIVAL (JULY 12 – JULY 20, 2024)

River Excursions

Come join the fun of our River Excursions. This is an educational and sightseeing event. We provide a free ride for all attendees of the festival. You can experience a 20-25 minute pontoon boat ride through our city’s famous rivers, with a docent on board giving you a tour guide approach to the river system, the history of the area, and prominent points of interest along the river. Come join the river fun!

Junk Food Alley

Junk Food Alley is one of the Festival’s largest and most anticipated attractions. Food vendors participate locally and from all over the nation to offer festival fare – fried treats, elephant ears, popcorn, barbeque and much, much more. An average of 60,000 people visit Junk Food Alley each year. Junk Food Alley is open each day of the festival and is located next to Festival Plaza.

Emporium

Support local artists and crafters by shopping at the emporium! You will find unique food, jewelry, soaps, clothing, home decor, and more.

The emporium is full of innovative goods you didn’t know you needed, but won’t be able to live without after you see them!

Downtown Midway

The Three Rivers Festival Downtown Midway encompasses the tree-lined East and West area of beautiful Headwaters Park. With the backdrop of the river, the hint of the Plaza music, the scent of Food Alley, this is a popular, open area (no admission charge) for friends to meet and spend the day. Downtown Midway includes a blend of free displays and exhibits, carnival amusement rides, and budget-friendly attractions.

We wish to welcome community members with sensory challenges to come enjoy our midway during this special time frame. Kissel Entertainment will turn down the music and speed on the amusement rides during this time. Rides will be free to guests with sensory challenges and their families. Games and food will be available for purchase.

​The Midway will only be open to guests with sensory challenges and their families. The Midway will be closed to the general public during this time.
