The 2024 season has officially kicked off for the Twin Cities River Rats—a dynamic show ski team based right here in Minneapolis, Minnesota. You know what that means? FREE water ski shows all summer long on the mighty Mississippi River. Pack a picnic, gather your friends and family, and head to the river to catch one of their mind-blowing performances.

Shows take place between the Broadway and Plymouth Bridges, where you’ll witness incredible feats like swivel skiing—ski bindings that rotate 360 degrees—and the "mic drop," where skiers drop the handle mid-performance only to pick it up again seamlessly. The grand finale features pyramids reaching three to four tiers high. At any given show, you might see anywhere from 30 to 50 skiers behind the boat, all powered by a 900-horsepower engine!

Intrigued? It gets even better. Have you ever wanted to be part of a ski team? If you can swim, you can join! The Twin Cities River Rats welcome all ages and abilities. New families and members are always encouraged to join—teamwork makes this dream work.

It's the perfect evening out, blending thrilling stunts, the beautiful Mississippi River, and perfect Midwest summer nights. Entertainment for all ages, and performances continue throughout the summer. Donations are always appreciated to keep the fun going.

Don't miss out on the Twin Cities River Rats!
