Dragon boat meets Dixieland during this action-packed day of racing on Louisiana’s scenic Northshore. Races take place in the cozy town of Madisonville, with New Orleans and Bourbon Street just a short trip over the causeway for post-event celebrations.
Take a break between races and check out the Walgreens Health and Wellness Village on festival grounds, offering products and services to help maintain a healthy lifestyle. Paddlers can relax and prepare for races in the Neutrogena Suncare Athletes’ Village.
Mixed, Women's and Open teams compete in 500m races on the shores of Lake Pontchartrain in picturesque Northshore - St. Tammany.
