Get Ready for the Portsmouth Dragon Boat Festival!

Fancy Dress Teams Wanted for Charity
Organizers want wild and wacky fancy dress teams to row for a cause. All proceeds go to Hampshire Homes for Veterans, supporting homeless veterans. Each team needs 16 rowers, a drummer, and three reserves.
Race Details & Fundraising
- Teams race over a 250-metre course in heats, with semi-finals and a final for the fastest crews.
- Every team member must swim at least 50 metres.
- Each rower must raise a minimum of £50 sponsorship to help fund vital veteran services.
Can you rally your colleagues, family, or mates to form a team? Don’t miss out — get in touch now!
