Memphis Dragon Boat Festival

Memphis Dragon Boat Festival You also can relax with culture performance, food, and gifts shopping. Boom! The atmosphere is electric. The competition is heated. WHERE IS THIS AMAZING EVENT?

is a fun, electric event to race across Hyde Lake in Shelby Farm in thousand years old Chinese dragon boat format to raise fund for Memphis Chinese Community Center. The drummer at the helm of the boat beats the drum to set the pace, as 20 team members heave in time with each beat, slicing their paddles into the water, propelling the 46-foot-long dragon boat towards the finish line. The boom of th

e drum, the glistening lake, the yell of the steererโ€™s commands to the team, the food trucks, the childrenโ€™s activities, the cheering of the crowd, and multiple brightly colored dragon-scaled boats neck and neck in fierce pursuit of the finish lineโ€ฆ all for a great cause! This is NOT your average fund raiser. This is really a FUN FUN FUN event! Hyde Lake in Shelby Farms Park in Memphis, TN

WHEN DOES THE FUN BEGIN? The Memphis Dragon Boat Festival is a one-day celebration that starts with set up and a kick-off ceremony on June 1st and culminates with a full day of racing and fun. WHY ARE WE DOING THIS? The Memphis Chinese Community Center is a non-profit organization to promote Chinese culture and organize fun events inviting all adults in the community regardless of race, gender and ethnicity. With more teams getting involved in Dragon Boat Racing, we plan to raise more funds this year to support this organization!
