Head Of The Charles Regatta

World's Largest Rowing Regatta

Memorial Drive
(Head Of The Charles Rowing & Fitness Expo)
Boston, MA 02238

This is the largest two-day regatta in the world occurring annually in the latter part of October. Established in 1965, the regatta now hosts 19 events and attracts over 300,000 spectators who line the banks and bridges turning Boston into a rowing haven. 7000 scullers and crews ranging from high school and collegiate teams, to individuals both young and old churn up the three mile Charles River course from Boston University boathouse to Artesani Park in Brighton. The most competitive collegiate and international races occur on Sunday. Cheer for your favorite competitor from Herter Park in Brighton, the launching site of visiting crews, and the Weeks and Anderson Bridges near Harvard Square, where most collisions take place due to boats passing one another. The event is free for spectators.
