Official Marble Falls Lakefest Site ~ Drag Boat Races ~ Marble Falls Texas
LakeFest 2008, August 8th-10th, marks the 17th year that the Marble Falls/Lake LBJ Chamber of Commerce transforms Lake Marble Falls into a liquid quarter-mile "racetrack" and the banks of the lake into a wild three-day boat race party. LakeFest takes place in Lakeside and Johnson Parks in Marble Falls, Texas.
On Friday, more than 120 boats go in the water for Test & Tune. Drag boat fans swarm Johnson Park on Friday evening for a chance to get up-close and personal with the drivers and boats at Show-N-Shine. Fans have an opportunity to purchase official t-shirts and posters for autographs and have their picture taken with the stars of the show. The highlight of the evening comes at dusk as top-fuelers "fire up," shooting flames out exhaust pipes and splitting every ear-drum in the park.
Immediately following Show-N-Shine, a concert will begin in Lakeside Park. Friday and weekend passes include access to the concert. Gates open bright and early on Saturday at 7 a.m. for qualifying races that last all day
Early-birds can arrive Sunday at 7 a.m. to get a great seat for opening ceremonies at 11 a.m. Top-fuel boats thrill crowds with astonishing speeds that can top 240 miles per hour. The day will end with the awards ceremony following the last race. Food, beverages and merchandise vendors will be available to visit between races. Coolers, pets, umbrellas and personal golf carts are not allowed on festival grounds. Seating is on a first-come, first-serve basis.
