Grand Rapids Riverfest was born out of the KAXE 91.7 Mississippi Riverfest, a grassroots celebration of KAXE's new station along the banks of the Mississippi River in Grand Rapids, Minnesota. The original festival garnered loyal fans over a 15-year period.

Now transformed, the Grand Rapids Riverfest is simply the best party around. You'll get a curated lineup of musicians with national recognition and music that truly matters to the spirit. The festival also incorporates local restaurants and breweries, giving you a literal taste of life in Grand Rapids.

Riverfest is brought to you by a partnership between KAXE Northern Community Radio and the city of Grand Rapids. This year's festival is set for Saturday, Sept. 9, 2023.
