The city and region of Ottawa/Gatineau is well known for such recreational sporting venues as the Canal, Gatineau Park and of course the Ottawa River which is world renown as one of the greatest kayaking rivers in the world. We are fortunate to have this venue in our own backyard.

The Level Six Capital Cup will take place on Bates Island, off of the Champlain Bridge on the Ottawa River (near The Ottawa River Parkway and Island Park Drive). The rapids beside Bates Island offer fantastic surf waves, perfect for performing tricks and aerials for paddlers of all levels. Bates Island is a great venue for both athletes and spectators, offering a clear view of the waves in a beautiful park setting. There is parking, washroom facilities and shady picnicking areas maintained by the NCC, making this a great outdoor venue for local sports enthusiasts and spectators. We have also added live DJs to the show to keep the crowd entertained, and the athletes inspired as well as a grand stand for your viewing pleasure.
The Level Six Capital will also have information stands available by:
