The week is packed full of competition, family fun, entertainment, live music and so much more. It’s free to attend!!!

The Dartmouth Regatta committee are looking to invite any potential volunteers and encourage attendance at the Welcome session taking place this Saturday at the Flavel
After the final confirmation of the lifting of all Covid restrictions from the 19th July, we are delighted to confirm we will be going ahead with Regatta 176 in August! There will be all the usual sport and entertainment. Sailing, rowing, crabbing, road races, swimming gala, live music, our shopping parade and much more besides. Our official Regatta Souvenir Programme will be hot off the printers by the beginning of August for you to buy, and help support us, for just a fiver.
Dartmouth is super busy – great news for all of our businesses and traders and we welcome all visitors to our beautiful town.
May is here, and we aren’t sure about you, but we don’t ever recall having to have the heating on in this month! It’s been so chilly!
Got lockdown lethargy? Can’t wait to get back in amongst the action? Like water, and silliness?
Then grab whatever is to hand and start building your raft for the legendary Regatta KonTiki Raft race.
We welcome the latest UK Government announcements and the setting out of the country’s roadmap return to normality. The Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta Committee is pleased to say we are continuing to work alongside all the relevant authorities with the ambition of running the 176th Dartmouth Regatta this summer.
We are full of anticipation at the thought of being able to host a Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta this year. After an ‘annus horribilis’ for everyone, but especially those of our community who are in the hospitality industry and of course those affected by the COVID pandemic, we think we could all do with something to look forward to.

For all of us as a family Regatta always starts long before the last Friday in August. Vaughan is Vice chair of DARC and runs a safety boat for the skiff rowing on Thursday. Months of planning go into this event to ensure the 300 plus rowers enjoy a good day’s racing.
