Paddles Up!

The Dream Factory, together with the Manitoba Paddling Association, presents The Dream Factory River City Dragon Boat Festival on June 5 & 6, 2020 at the Manitoba Canoe & Kayak Club at 80 Churchill Drive in Winnipeg. The festival is a fantastic opportunity for fun, entertainment, racing, and most importantly, to help us to Make more Dreams Come True!

Our classic “Big Boat” Dragon Boat festival is open to everyone, from corporate to community teams, or ones made up of family and friends. Action starts at 6:00 p.m. on Friday, and again at 9:00 a.m. on Saturday morning, finishing around 6:00 p.m.

Teams can register a maximum of 25 members (20 paddlers, a drummer, a steerer and 3 spares). In order to participate in practices and races, each boat must have a minimum of 16 paddlers and a drummer (steerers provided if needed). Early Dragon registration for a team of 20-25 paddlers is $950

Registration is opening soon - so the time is NOW to start getting your team together to make make more dreams come true. We’ll be on the water before we know it!
