133rd Sudbury International Rowing Regatta, 3rd August

  Rowing on The River Stour, Sudbury

133rd Sudbury International Regatta, 3rd August 2013

The Sudbury Rowing Regatta takes place on the Saturday of the first weekend of August each year. This year’s Regatta will take place on the 3rd (provisionally) and we are already planning to lay on the usual glorious weather.

The 650m Rowing course is raced upstream from a stake boat start along a course characterised by some challenging bends. One of the highlights of the regatta is the sprint eights event, racing for hip-flasks along the last and straighter 350m.

We provide state of the art spectator facilities, particularly in the stadium section of the course with wonderful home-baked cakes, burgers, a hog roast and locally brewed beer.
