2026 Rowing Calendar (provisional)
most dates not yet available
Page created 23 Jun 2023; last updated 11 Mar 2025
The information here is unofficial. If, for the event you are looking at, there are no links here to the 2026
information (after clearing your cache if necessary), it may perhaps be worth trying last year's link (if there is
one) from the 2025 calendar.
See also the
British Rowing
calendar in due course.
The dates here are mainly provisional, but give an outline for a few of the major national events,
and will include other events when they inform me of their planned dates.
