Festival Schedule

The KanFest event schedule is currently under development and will be finalized approximately three months prior to the festival. As with any river-based event, the final schedule is influenced by athlete registration numbers and river flows, and remains subject to change.
 
Most events will be organized into two or three skill-based categories to ensure fair competition, safety, and maximum fun for all participants. For a sense of what to expect, you can view a full list of last year’s events and event winners here.
