The events that bring the Riverside area together
From wine tastings and business breakfasts to golf, a food festival, and a family Halloween, our marquee annual events are where Riverside come together every year to celebrate, connect, and do business.
Our signature events
Six marquee gatherings anchor the chamber calendar. Each one raises money, builds relationships, and puts local business front and center across the Riverside area.
Our wine-tasting fundraiser at The Riverside Cellar in Riverside, with small bites and raffle prizes. It powers the chamber scholarship fund, which has supported local graduating seniors for years.
Riverside Business Breakfast (February)A morning of connection and candid conversation over breakfast, where Riverside area business leaders share what is working now and what comes next for the local economy.
Annual Meeting & Awards (April)The chamber's marquee celebration. We recap the year, seat leadership, and honor the businesses and volunteers who made the biggest difference across Riverside.
Golf Classic (May)A full day on the greens at Cedar Ridge Golf Club, with lunch, prizes, and foursomes of members and neighbors. One of the most popular days on the chamber calendar.
Taste of Riverside (June)A new celebration of food, drink, and community at the picturesque Willow Bend Farm in Riverside. Local restaurants and makers pour and plate the best of the Riverside area.
Fall Harvest Fest (October)Fall Harvest Fest at the Riverside Green Amphitheater: live music, local breweries, food vendors, bounce houses, and trick-or-treating for hundreds of local families.
