Yukon Riverside Arts Festival

The Yukon Riverside Arts Festival takes place in various venues around Dawson City on Discovery Days weekend, August 13 – 16.  The festival aims to provide an accessible environment for community members and visitors to interact directly with the arts and explore their creativity.

We welcome artists practicing traditional and non-traditional contemporary art from the Yukon and abroad presenting a wide range of events, including concerts, exhibitions, workshops, lectures, public art, live music, an art market and more. Most festival events are family friendly and free of charge.
