The Dragon Boat Festival is a small gathering of paddle teams in a positive atmosphere of competitive spirit and camaraderie.
This annual event is fun, affordable and fast paced. The Festival Village atmosphere is typically a vibrant and fun atmosphere with live music, working artisans, information kiosks and healthy food vendors serving up a taste of the Shuswap.
Located in a beautiful setting on the shores of Salmon Arm Bay in Marine Park the festival is fun for the whole family. In keeping with our organization’s mission statement, SARP strives to foster a healthy, happy lifestyle and build a stronger community through promoting and developing paddling and rowing activities.
While our annual Dragon Boat Festival is a gathering of paddling teams, the organizers try to provide an atmosphere of camaraderie and a positive spirit of competition as a beginning to the Dragon Boat racing season for participating teams.
