Staines Amateur Regatta is a rowing and sculling regatta dating back to 1851 taking place on the River Thames in Staines-upon-Thames, annually on the 4th weekend in July. It features competitors from all age groups and abilities.
The 2025 regatta will be held on Saturday 26th July over a distance of 500m downstream on the River Thames. Please note this is different to the previous two years where we held the regatta over two days – we have reverted to a single day.
