Rockwall, TX (September 26, 2023) – The Rockwall Rubber Duck Regatta & Jeep Festival is set for Saturday, Oct. 14 at The Harbor.
This fun fall festival boasts all-day fun with a huge kids zone, live music and entertainment, fantastic food trucks, a vendor market with great deals, adrenaline-pumping Mini-Jeep races, 4×4 obstacles, a Halloween-themed Jeep show and so much more! And most importantly – the Rubber Duck Race at 5 p.m.
What is the Rubber Duck Race?
People from all over the area are “adopting” rubber ducks online to participate in the big race. Before the race, a random number generator is used to assign each adopter a number. On the day of the event, thousands of rubber ducks, each sporting its own unique racing number, will be poised at the starting line, ready to embark on this eagerly anticipated race. The edges of the multi-level Harbor fountains will be full of spectators cheering for their ducks. It’s the race we’ve all been waiting for, with the ultimate prize on the line – a brand new JEEP WRANGLER!
Following a thrilling countdown by the crowd, the rubber ducks will take the plunge. Their journey to the finish line will include cascading waterfalls and aquatic acrobatics that are a spectacle to see! Their goal? Be the first to enter the Winner’s Tube. The first duck to emerge from the tube is swiftly collected, its number meticulously compared to the list of adopters, and the winner is announced!

All For A Good Cause
Benefiting the Boys & Girls Clubs of Northeast Texas and Grace Clinic, this event is a great chance to support two important causes in Rockwall County. The Boys & Girls Clubs of Northeast Texas seek to ensure that every kid who walks through their doors, especially those who need them most, reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.
Grace Clinic is a faith-based nonprofit clinic offering affordable medical care to the entire community and charitable medical care for low-income and underserved county residents through a sliding scale program. Your support of this event enables both organizations to help more families in need.
