2024 Chinese Dragon Boat Festival Programme

GUIDE TO THE UK CHINESE DRAGON BOAT FESTIVAL MEDIACITY AND THE QUAYS 8-9 JUNE 2024

UK Chinese dragon boat racing this year has attracted 44 teams in 2024. The racing game is organised and managed by a professional company to guarantee that the racing is fun and fair. Building on the success of previous years, we will be showcasing highly entertaining dragon boat races and authentically traditional Chinese cultural attractions. These will feature traditional lion dance, Chinese Shaolin Kungfu, an exhilarating waist drum performance by talents from its origin in Ansai, China, Chinese folk dancing, and a taste of traditional Chinese food like Zongzi, among much more.

It’s a truly wonderful event for the whole family and a fantastic chance to experience authentic Chinese culture.
