26th July 2025: Dragon Boat Race

This prestigious national sailing race returns to Falmouth again this summer.

Setting off from our pontoons, watch the brightly coloured boats race up and down from The Greenbank shoreline with a pint in hand.

At this free event, you can expect to enjoy a thrilling day of Dragon Boat racing, with teams competing throughout the day to take home the winning title. Spectator, winner or loser, there’ll be lots on offer.

The Working Boat will be serving bacon baps in the morning and delicious dirty fries all day, piled high with toppings like crispy squid, hickory pulled pork, and truffle parmesan. If you’d like to join us for food booking is recommended.

This year, we’re partnering with Mylor Sailability with 10% of all proceeds generated from our food and drink sales during the day donated to this amazing local charity.

So, head on down to the quay on 26th July 2025 and back your favourite boat with a pint in hand. The question is, who will take the title this year?
