Riversway Festival

Celebrations start on the Friday evening for the many boaters that have made the journey to Preston. Activities for the general public are taking place on Saturday and Sunday.

The event will be centred around the Main Stage and Marquee, on the far side of the docks, near the swing bridge (boats entrance to dock)

Throughout the weekend, there will be a great selection of boats and ships, entertainment, stalls, food, music and dancing and a spectacular not to be missed are the huge display of fireworks ending Saturday night in style

Celebrating the fantastic waterborne traditions of this powerhouse of the Industrial Revolution, the Riversway Festival turns the clocks back, pre-1981 when the Preston docks closed for business. Now part of a major rejuvenation scheme, Riversway has become a great place to go for all the family.
