River Jam at U.S. National Whitewater Center
Head to the U.S. National Whitewater Center (USNWC) for River Jam every Thursday evening, 7:00 to 10:00 PM, from now through October. River Jam provides live music for visitors to listen to from the patio of River’s Edge Bar and Grill with the world’s largest man-made whitewater river as a backdrop. Watch rafters take on the challenge of the whitewater as you eat supper and listen to the live band. Or, participate in some of the activities available at the center, such as nighttime whitewater rafting.
The U.S. National Whitewater Center is located just west of Charlotte, North Carolina and offers rafting adventures on several river channels of varying intensities and skill levels, rock climbing, zip lines and high ropes, miles of hiking, biking, walking and running trails, eco caching, and various specialized programs for people of all ages.
