Back by popular demand, the Dragon Boat Race is returning to Newcastle Quayside once again this September for a fun-filled day of racing down the River Tyne!
The charity challenge will see teams of between 11 and 16 adrenaline junkies (plus one drummer) take to the Tyne in hopes of paddling their way to victory in dragon-decorated canoes.
Not got your sea legs? There’ll also be lots of interactive fun that visitors can take part in for a donation to The Sir Bobby Robson Foundation, including a charity raffle including some unmissable prizes!
This year's Dragon Boat Race is sponsored by Orega and Fortis Vision, with money raised benefitting The Sir Bobby Robson Foundation. Check out the official Newcastle's Dragon Boat Race website for more information or visit Just Giving to make a donation.
