The 16th Annual Royal Gorge Whitewater Festival (RGWF) features whitewater competitions and land-based recreation events to celebrate the whitewater season on the Arkansas River. Enjoy summer flows in a fantastic whitewater setting in historic Cañon City, Colorado. Held in the refurbished and family-friendly Centennial Park, the Cañon City Whitewater Festival pairs boats, bands, and beer for a weekend of fun-filled (and whitewater-fueled) events.

All are welcome to register for events or to watch the fun unfold!
