Get ready for the adrenaline-pumping River Raft Regatta, a highlight of Downtown Gatlinburg’s Fourth of July extravaganza! The competition kicks off near the bridge by the former Christ in the Smokies Museum, with participants vying to be the first to cross the finish line at Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies.
Don’t have a floatable? No problem! You can still join the action by renting a rubber ducky, with proceeds supporting the Gatlinburg Chamber Foundation. For just $2 each or $5 for a trio, you can dive into the excitement and make a difference while you’re at it!
As if that’s not thrilling enough, this year’s River Raft Regatta will crown champions in categories like Treasure, Duck, and Most Creative Float. It’s your chance to shine and earn bragging rights alongside the best of the best.
Join us for a day filled with fun, laughter, and friendly competition as we celebrate Independence Day in style!
