Gauley Fest just keeps getting bigger and better! Started in 1983 to celebrate the derailment of a hydro-electric project that would have disrupted the flows on the Gauley River, Gauley Fest has grown to become the largest river festival in the world.

The festival is a showcase for American Whitewater and the top whitewater vendors in the boating community, plus it’s THE place to catch up with old friends, make new ones, and just have a great time with like-minded river loving folks.

Gauley Fest is also AW’s largest fundraising event. All proceeds from the festival support American Whitewater’s conservation and access works throughout the nation.

The festival will feature live entertainment, a whitewater marketplace, raffle, and a silent auction where you can pick up some awesome outdoor gear. Come out and join us for a weekend of great paddling, exciting camaraderie, live entertainment, killer boat raffles, and the infamous silent auction.
