The Yukon Riverside Arts Festival (YRAF) will return this summer for its 2024 edition: a weekend of interdisciplinary arts and special events presented by local and regional artists across a wide range of mediums.

The Yukon Riverside Arts Festival takes place at Riverside Park and at many venues and historical sites throughout Dawson City. For more than two decades, the Yukon Riverside Arts Festival has established itself as one of the anchor events of Yukon summer and has helped transform Dawson City into a cultural hub of the North.

• Scheduled performances and exhibits at various locations
• Installations and interactive projects throughout Dawson
• Hands-on artist demonstration tents
• An artist market, were you can purchase handcrafted goods and art by local artisans
• A kids tent with art-related activities for youth
• All-ages live music stage
• The gallery hop, a self-directed art crawl evening to kick off the Festival
