Melbourne Rowing Week
Melbourne_RW

Rowing Victoria in conjunction with WCSN are proud to present Melbourne Rowing Week.

Melbourne is set to be Australia's first capital city to host a week dedicated to the sport of rowing, with the CBD location of the Yarra River making it the perfect place to invite professionals and beginners to take up oars.

From Saturday 13 November, the Yarra will be transformed for Melbourne Rowing Week - a community focused event hosted by Rowing Victoria, in association with the World Championships Sports Network (WCSN), City of Melbourne, Parks Victoria and Marine Safety.

Additionally, don't miss the inaugural Rowing Victoria Hall of Fame Dinner for the induction of a number of identities from throughout the history of Victorian rowing.
