Henley Royal Regatta 2026
The world's most prestigious rowing event, steeped in English tradition.
Henley Royal Regatta combines elite competitive rowing with the quintessential English summer social event. The Stewards' Enclosure dress code, Pimm's on the riverbank, and the thunder of eights racing down the straight course create a uniquely British spectacle.
