About

Since 2012, the Rockwall Rubber Duck Regatta and Jeep Festival has been the ultimate family-friendly tradition at The Harbor in Rockwall, Texas. What started as a quirky duck race has grown into a full-day celebration that brings together thousands of people for music, food, games, Jeeps, and plenty of fun by the lake.

The festival offers something for everyone:

• Live music & performances all day long!

• A huge Kids Zone with inflatables, mini-Jeep races, carnival-style games and Halloween fun!

• The action-packed Jeep Zone with Show & Shine contests, Poker Run, Trunk-Or-Treating, Food Trucks, a DJ and an all day Tailgate Experience with games and football watching fun! 
  

• Local food trucks and vendors serving up favorites for the whole family!

And of course, the highlight of the day - the Rubber Duck Race! Thousands of bright yellow ducks splash into the fountains at The Harbor, racing for amazing prizes, including Visa gift cards and the grand prize: a brand-new Jeep Wrangler.

But the fun goes beyond the prizes. The Rubber Duck Regatta and Jeep Festival is also a fundraiser with a purpose. Every duck adopted helps support two incredible nonprofits right here in our community:

• Boys & Girls Clubs of Northeast Texas (BGCNETX): Providing a safe place for kids to learn, grow, and thrive through academic support, mentorship, and character-building programs.

• Grace Clinic: Offering affordable medical care, mental health support, cancer screenings, women's health and health education to families who might otherwise go without access to essential healthcare.

So whether you’re cheering on the ducks, showing off your Jeep, dancing to live music, or simply enjoying a fall day by the lake, you’re also helping strengthen the community we all call home.

Join us this October for a day of fun, prizes, and purpose - it’s Rockwall’s most spec’quack’ular event of the year!
