Water is life 💧

It sustains our health, our communities, and our planet. Together, we can inspire the next generation to protect and cherish this vital resource — and you can play a key role in making it happen.

With activities designed to inspire curiosity and lasting stewardship, our event brings together educators, conservation groups, industry leaders, and government partners to foster a community that values and protects water. 

This year, the festival returns to the Riverview Park and Zoo on May 27 & 28, 2026, welcoming 1,400 students, teachers, and volunteers to the scenic banks of the Odenabe/Otonabee River in Nogojiwanong/Peterborough.

We welcome individual donors & corporate sponsors.
