REGATTA: Head Up the Creek
October 27, 2024
Head Up the Creek hosted by False Creek Rowing Club.
Location: False Creek, Vancouver
Description: This 5000m event has historically been held in March at the start of the Head Race season, but has moved to this date in hopes of better weather, and to provide a clear end to the Head Race season on the Lower Mainland. This event is primarily attended by JR athletes looking for race experience, and SR/MA athletes looking for a race opportunity close to home. It mostly attracts attendees from the Lower Mainland. The environment is purposefully designed to be welcoming for those newer to regattas. The event is easy to access with its central Downtown Vancouver location and provides the unique opportunity to row under multiple bridges, beside and around small tourist ferries, and culminates in cake for the winners.
Registration: Registration and more information available on Regatta Central.
