Description: | In a day-long celebration on Gardiner's Historic Water Street and beautiful Waterfront Park, Gardiner Main Street, Gardiner Rotary, and Johnson Hall present live music and entertainment on three stages, a craft fair, and activities for all ages on and near the Kennebec River. The event is expected to bring thousands of visitors to the area. Items from Gardiner Main Street's popular "Ride Into Summer" have been folded into this year's River Festival including an opportunity for members of the public to crown the title of "Gardiner's Best Pizza". The event kicks off of the Kennebec Valley Chamber of Commerce's annual summer celebration of our riverfront communities, affectionately known as the "Whatever" Family Festival. The Greater Gardiner River Festival, brought to you by US Cellular of Gardiner, takes place on Saturday, June 21st. Activities run from 9am until 11pm. Festival organizers have continued to expand creative offerings ranging from trying a stand up paddleboard to chainsaw sculpture demonstrations and free boat rides on the River. Event-goers can plan on spending part or all of their day in Gardiner. Historic Water Street in Gardiner will be transformed into a pedestrian mall with artists, crafters, and specialty food vendors exhibiting their products from 10am-4pm. Throughout the day, there will be entertainment and childrens' activities on Water Street, and in Gardiner's Waterfront Park. "Late June is the perfect time to spend a day on the beautiful Kennebec River" says Gardiner Main Street's director, Patrick Wright. "If you've heard about some of the recent changes in Downtown Gardiner, but haven't had the chance to visit yet, this is a great opportunity to see what we have to offer." | ||
