Dragon boat racing—a sport that originated in Asia and is practiced there by millions of people—is also a big hit here!
On August 29, the drums will once again sound for the dragon boat race in the city on the Aare. The mix of fun, athletic competition, team spirit, Asian tradition, and celebration makes this event a truly special experience. Anyone can participate. A team consists of 17 friends, acquaintances, coworkers, relatives, or clubmates. No prior experience is required. The organizers provide the boats, paddles, life jackets, and the coxswain. In addition, once a team successfully registers, it will have the opportunity to participate in a training session on-site during the week leading up to the event. The most important things are having fun and fostering team spirit. Rhythm and coordination are more important than sheer muscle power and determine victory or defeat.
Dragon boat races at the Züri Fäscht and in Eglisau have proven, with a history spanning over 25 years, that Switzerland has long been gripped by dragon boat fever. Solothurn, too, was swept up in this dragon boat fever in 2023. The goal of the race is to make this extraordinary sport accessible to a broad audience and the media in an authentic way.
Dragonboatevents, in collaboration with DNA Events, is responsible for organizing and hosting the Solothurn Dragon Boat Race, focusing on three cornerstones: SPORT, SOCIETY, FUN. We firmly believe that if we can touch the bodies, minds, and souls of both spectators and participants, the event will become a truly special experience.
