Paddle Fest 2027 is coming — and we want YOU to help shape it!

This one-day event is all about education and storytelling: voices across generations sharing wisdom, hard-won lessons, and the kind of adventure that gets you excited to get back on the water.

Got a paddling story worth telling? A unique trip, a niche skill, a lesson learned the hard way, or a perspective we haven't heard enough of? We're looking for new presenters and fresh topics to make this the best Paddle Fest yet.
