Race the Dragon is a charity event, hosted by Worcester Dragon Boat Racing Club. It has been held annually, except for the “covid years”, for over 25 years right in the heart of Worcester on the River Severn.

Up to 30 teams enter each year to compete for Open, Women’s, Mixed and Under 18 trophies, raising thousands of pounds for charity.

With parking and the City centre both in easy walking distance, Race the Dragon is a family friendly event that is fun to watch and to be part of. Come along to support teams and cheer them on as they race throughout the day.

We hope to return to hosting Race the Dragon soon!

One group who took part in 2019 was the Worcester Chinese Association who made a fantastic video of their day.
