At HWR
Spectators
You can watch the racing from the towpath right along the course at Henley Women’s Regatta – no tickets are required.
You can sit on the river bank or on the free seating provided in the Spectator Zone, where there are plenty of food and drink stalls, but you’re also welcome to bring your own picnic.
If you’re travelling by car, make sure you book an e-ticket for the car park.
The draw and timetable of racing are published here.
For a truly magical HWR experience and get the best view of the finish line, join us in the Chairman’s Enclosure at Remenham Club. From the elevated ‘mound’ there you can see right down towards the Temple Island and then get an uninterrupted view of the crews as they wind up in their final sprint. The friendly, relaxed atmosphere in the Enclosure is also a perfect place to meet up with friends.
