Important Update for the 2020 Portland Dragon Boat Festival
DragonSports USA regrets to announce the cancellation of the 2020 Portland Dragon Boat Festival, previously scheduled to be held on September 12 & 13, 2020 at Tom McCall Waterfront Park in Portland, Oregon.
In light of the uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, the DragonSports board of directors unanimously agreed that cancellation of our September event would be the safest decision. We could potentially run a scaled-down race and break even financially, but we would be challenged to maintain appropriate social distancing for those engaged in physical fitness in the team areas, marshaling, and especially the boats. We will take this time to preserve our resources, perform some much-needed maintenance on our fleet, and look forward to welcoming you all back to Portland on September 11 & 12, 2021.
Thank you for your support, understanding, and patience. We are sending our best to you, your teams, and the entire community, with hopes to stay healthy and help each other during this difficult time.

Some DragonSports teams participate in Rose Festival, but the races are organized by the Portland-Kaohsiung Sister City Association, not DragonSports USA. Please visit the PKSCA website for more information. If you'd like to get a leg-up on Rose Festival, many teams practice year-round in Hong Kong-style dragon boats with DragonSports USA.
