PADDLES UP, TEAMS — CALGARY IS READY FOR YOU!

Welcome to the 2026 Sinopec Calgary Dragon Boat Race & Festival!

Dragon boat teams, the countdown is on — and North Glenmore Park is about to come alive with the sound of drums, paddles, cheering crowds, and fierce racing action!

On behalf of the Calgary Dragon Boat Society, we are fired up to welcome every team joining us for this year’s festival. Whether you are a returning powerhouse, a first-time crew, a seasoned contender, or a team ready to make your mark, this is your moment to bring the energy, bring the heart, and bring the race-day spirit.

And to our incredible out-of-town teams — Paddles Up! You have travelled from near and far to be part of Calgary’s dragon boat weekend, and we are honoured to have you on our waters. Your passion, your commitment, and your competitive fire bring an extra level of excitement to the festival. You help turn this event into more than a race — you make it a gathering of teams, communities, cultures, and friendships from across city, provincial, and international borders.

Get ready for a weekend packed with fast boats, hard strokes, tight finishes, roaring supporters, cultural performances, great food, and the kind of team spirit that only dragon boating can deliver.

The drums are getting louder.

The boats are lining up.

The paddles are ready.

We cannot wait to see you at North Glenmore Park for an unforgettable weekend of racing, celebration, and community. So teams, get ready to dig deep, race hard, cheer loud, and make memories that will last long after the final horn.

Thank you for being part of our festival family.

We wish every team strong starts, clean runs, powerful finishes, and fast boats all weekend long.
