The Date for the 2026 Regatta Has Been Announced
If you want to attend the 2026 Regatta, put April 24th in your calendar.
The organisers of this year's race, Emil Ebbensgaard Kjær & Daniel Vestergaard from Umbilicus (The Medicine students association), have just announced the date for what will be the 36th Regatta.
It all kicks off on Friday, 24 April, in the University Park.
On the Facebook event, the two organisers promise a great party and, as is tradition, they will drink one beer per 1,000 participants/interested in the event. At the time of writing, this results in 2.4 beers, as 1,900 have responded that they are interested in the event, while 500 have responded that they are participating.
Training for the Regatta on March 1st is usually a sure sign of spring. However, since the northern lake in the University Park has undergone renovation in recent months, which was delayed by freezing weather in the first months of the year, spring training will instead be moved to the southern lake in the park next to the Lakeside Lecture Theatres. However, this requires that the temperature rise if the competing teams are to have water under their keel.
