After a vague press release last week, we now know what Richmond’s newest active lifestyle event is. This afternoon on Brown’s Island, Mayor Dwight Jones and Dominion CEO Tom Farrell announced Dominion Riverrock, a celebration of Richmond’s active river life on May 15-16. The free event created by Venture Richmond and the Sports Backers will blend music, sports, interactive opportunities, and environmental stewardship; and is sure to have a major impact on the River District!
Friday, May 15, Dominion Riverrock begins with a free performance by nationally acclaimed roots music and world rock band Rusted Root, a Mud Run, a high-flying Big Air dog jumping competition, and an acrobatic freestyle bike competition.
Saturday, May 16, athletes from around the region square off in high-adrenaline activities both in and around the river including the James River Scramble trail run, mountain biking, kayaking and more. With additional musical performances, dog and bike competition, food, exhibits and more.
