Why not come and watch the JT Hughes Shrewsbury Regatta on Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 May 2026.
Rowing races will take place on the River Severn in Shrewsbury between English Bridge and the boathouses opposite the Quarry. There will be a race roughly every three minutes on both days and with supporters from the competing clubs cheering the crews on the atmosphere should be full of excitement.
