Highlands Roar on the River

The Highlands Business Partnership, OPA (Offshore Powerboat Association) and Jersey Shore Boat Racing present Roar on the River on the Highlands waterfront.

The festivities kick off in Veterans Park with JSBR skiff racing and Roar on the River Fest, where you will find food vendors, specialty vendors, live entertainment, and a wine and beer garden. The festival runs from 12-6 pm Saturday.

The OPA Race Series will take place on Sunday. It can be viewed from Highlands waterfront establishments, which will offer race day specials and VIP Packages. These packages allow attendees to get an up-close view of this action-packed event.

Race fans can visit the “Pit” at the Seastreak Overflow Lot, 348 Shore Drive (formerly Doris & Ed’s Restaurant). The pit will be open to the public, and fans can get autographs and photos with the drivers and view the boats.
