New at GO Fest - Bouldering!

Ongoing Saturday and Sunday only.

Bouldering is climbing on a shorter wall without ropes and thick mats to cushion falls. It's a great way to learn technique, physical problem solving, and a very social way to enjoy the sport of climbing!

If you're brand new to bouldering, this is a perfect opportunity to test it out. To learn more before you come to GO Fest, watch this video.

The GO Fest Bouldering Wall has two sides: The "Try It" side and the "Sessions" side.

The Try It side is designed for true first-timers to get a taste of bouldering on a couple of routes at a time. There will be climbing shoes and chalk available to try, or you may simply climb in your street shoes.

Waivers required, under 18-year-olds must be accompanied by an adult. Please follow all rules and directions by staff.

If you're familiar with bouldering and interested in spending a bit more time at the bouldering wall during GO Fest, check out the "Session" side!
