For 15 years, Riverlife's Party at the Pier has widely been known as the fundraising event of the year. This year's anniversary celebration (25 years of Riverlife and 15 years of the event) promises to be out of this world. On Friday, Aug. 23, 2024, the stars will align on the Rooftop Terrace at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center for Riverlife's most anticipated event of the summer— Riverlife's Party at the Pier: Galactic, presented by Peoples.
