Tuck Fest

 

Tuck Fest is a three-day celebration of the outdoor lifestyle that attracts 40,000 people to the Whitewater Center every April. Its schedule includes dozens of races and competitions across Whitewater’s 1,300-acre facility, performances by award-winning bands and musicians, expos, vendors, clinics and more.

Tuck Fest gets its name from the Tuckaseegee Ford and Trail, a historical trading route that passes through the Whitewater Center property. Now in its 13th year, Tuck Fest showcases the best of Whitewater, all in one weekend.
