The Coracle Regatta

The Ironbridge Regatta has been run on and off since 1881. It now happens every August Bank Holiday Monday.

In the mean time here is a short film of the 2019 regatta

Supported by the Telford & Wrekin Council
King’s Coronation Fund

When will the Regatta take place?

The regatta takes place every August bank holiday. This year it will be on Monday 28th August 11.00am – 4.00pm at Dale End Park/ Ironbridge Rowing Club!

Thanks to Telford and Wrekin’s Council’s Kings Coronation Fund, this year our regatta is more than a little bit special! 

  • We are lucky enough to have three talented local artists, Cal Westbrook, Aya Sphynx and Caris Jackson providing some family fun activities with a bit of a Royal theme!
  •  The Fussler Potts racers will have to retrieve more than just fish this year. 
  • Our wonderful 2m tall willow woven crown will be on display and for the grand finale a mass coracle drift will accompany it down the river to just past the Iron Bridge.
