Astoria Regatta Festival

The Pacific Northwest's oldest festival, the Astoria Regatta has celebrated the maritime heritage of this historic river town since 1894. Enjoy a grand parade, boat races on the Columbia, a coronation, and days of community festivities where the mighty river meets the sea.

It's a proud, salt-soaked tradition in one of the West Coast's most storied ports — a town of Victorian homes, working docks, and rich history. Explore the Columbia River Maritime Museum, climb the Astoria Column, and soak up the atmosphere of a place where the river's past and present flow together.
