River Paddle — RiverFest Closing Event

11.30am Saturday 24 October | Riverside Park Lismore by the Boat Ramp

Two canoe tours will be paddling up river to explore from the water the incredible work over many years of riverbank plantings, as well as the work of the current Rainforest to Rivers project.

After your paddle grab a blanket, pack a picnic, and settle in for an afternoon of riverside music as Richmond RiverFest wraps up for another year.

However you spend it, paddling, picnicking, weaving or just soaking up the last of the festival, come mark the end of a month on the river with the community that made it happen.

Richmond RiverFest and Partners acknowledge and pay respects to the Elders and Custodians of Widjabal Wia-bal Country and recognises their ongoing, deep connection to the lands and waters.

This event is presented by the Richmond Riverkeeper with support fromLismore Council, Rous County Council and Jagun Alliance.

Richmond RiverFest 2026 has been made possible with support from the Australian Government and North Coast Regional Landcare Network through the Caring for Catchments project.
