Some people will find any excuse to drop what they're doing and get together for some fun – we love those people! All year round, the River of Lakes plays host to a stream of festivals, tours, parades, dances, fairs, jamborees, shows and other special events to celebrate our rich and colorful heritage and beautiful natural surroundings. There's always something happening along the river, so why not work us into your schedule?
