Whether it's a concert on the water, a pub crawl, a boat race, or a parade, we pointed the lens at the Lake of the Ozarks' biggest events this year. Here were the most-viewed photo galleries from 2018:
7. Bikefest
Inarguably the loudest week of the year at Lake of the Ozarks, Bikefest brings innumerable motorcyclists for a long weekend of activities.

6. Docks Overturned In Storm
Central Missouri storms are known for their ferocity, and this one did a number on some Lake of the Ozarks docks. Lots of people looked at this photo gallery, likely to make sure it wasn't their own dock sitting upside-down in the water.

5. Predator's Maiden Voyage
This one needs some explanation. The 68-foot Predator known as Miller Time made its maiden voyage on Lake of the Ozarks in 2014. But the boat was sold this year, and we wrote a short article about where it's headed. In the story was the photo gallery below, and thousands of people couldn't resist clicking through.

A community event rich with tradition. Family fun!

3. Shootout Fan Photos
The fan flotilla is legendary, and from what we can see aboard the LakeExpo boat (throwing out free shirts to the crowd), they're having a good time.
-
2. Mardi Gras Pub Crawl
Trying to shake off the winter blues, pub crawlers hop aboard buses and head out for a night on the town.
-
1. AquaPalooza
It's a massive cove-out at Dog Days. Lots of people, lots of music, and one of the Lake's most popular on-water events.
