How does a 2-day festival that focuses on music, sports, and DOGS sound??
Eukanuba sponsors the Ultimate Air Dogs portion at the event. It is a dock-jumping event that is run by former Detroit Tigers pitcher, Milt Wilcox. This event is growing so fast. We’re in just our third year and are already expecting about 30,000 people to come (there were about 25,000 in 2010). Here’s the event website for more information: Dominion River Rock.
Dominion Riverrock is the East Coast’s premier outdoor lifestyle festival, bringing athletes, spectators, musicians, and even dogs to Brown’s Island for a two-day festival against the backdrop of Richmond’s downtown riverfront. The party begins on Friday with performances by Big Gigantic and Perpetual Groove, a 5k mud run, and acrobatic kayak and freestyle bike competitions. Then, join in the fun Saturday in high-adrenaline activities both in and around the river – like the James River Scramble 10k trail run, mountain biking, kayaking, Ultimate Air Dogs and much more. The festival culminates with a performance by Yonder Mountain String Band. New to the event in 2011 are bouldering and Stand Up Paddleboarding. With additional musical performances, food, exhibits and more, Dominion Riverrock is a must-do for people of all ages.
