Kids Outdoor Adventure Expo on July 18-19 is the premier exploration destination for kids and their grown-ups! From ziplining across the sky and climbing a rock wall to paddling the lake, reeling in a fish and taking aim at the archery range, this two-day showcase is packed with fun and educational outdoor adventures for all to enjoy. Great Parks educators, outdoor experts and community partners share their knowledge and guide experiences like rafting, fishing, golf, exploration stations, dog agility performances, the FC Cincinnati Soccer Zone and more – with opportunities for guests to explore the outdoors at their own pace.

Fuel up with delicious bites from local food trucks while DJ JonJon brings the energy to the main stage. Enjoy live music from the Naked Karate Girls and Saffire Express, or meet some of Cincinnati’s biggest celebrities: Gary the Lion, Gapper or Mr. Redlegs!

Kids Outdoor Adventure Expo is a welcoming space for all adventurers to try something new, build confidence and enjoy memorable outdoor experiences. Motor Vehicle Permit (MVP) requirements and wet playground entry fees are waived at Winton Woods Harbor during event hours.
