The Last Blast!
Sun, July 10th, 2022 was a glorious day to celebrate
our final TBF.
THANK YOU to everyone who has
supported The Big Float and Human Access Project
over the years.
After 10 years of floating, parading,
and beach partying, we figure people get it:
embrace the Willamette River!
Hopefully, someone else will raise the sails of TBF.
We would salute that!
Long live the Riverlution!
The Big Float is/was a celebration of the Willamette River. It was a parade/float/beach party in downtown Portland benefitting the Human Access Project (HAP), a local, volunteer-driven nonprofit dedicated to helping people connect with their river and perhaps even embrace it.
The Big Float is also a catalyst. It’s a way to connect people and transform Portland’s relationship with the Willamette River. Hallelujah!
You must provide your own float vessel and life jacket. Life jackets are available online through registration or at the event. EVENT DETAILS THIS WAY →
Join the flotilla and sail downstream in the human-powered vessel of your choice.
The Willamette River is reviving and Portland’s relationship with it is transforming.
Sign up for The Big Float and help transform Portland's relationship with the Willamette River. Get into it!
