Dragon Boat Festival

The Mountain States Dragon Boat Festival is a free, all-day family event that has grown into a tradition for the Tri-Cities region. Dragon boat racing is a graceful, competitive sport that requires teamwork and skill. Each boat has a team of 20 paddlers — led by a drummer who sits in the front of the boat, and directed by the sweep at the rear of the boat — who use strength and coordination to race competing boats. Register a team to compete in the Dragon Boat Festival. Visit MSHAdragon.org and form your team today.

The Dragon Boat Festival events include:
• All-day competitive races of up to 40 local dragon boat teams,  with a final championship round
• Opening parade of dragon boat teams 
• The Food Pagoda with selections from local food truck cuisine 
• Kids Art Station
• ClubZ! Kids Paddle 
• Blood Assurance Health Fair 
• Battle of the Badges
