The London Boat Race is back! Join thousands of other live spectators (millions if you count TV spectators) along the Thames River (Putney to Mortlake) to cheer on the competing rowing crews from Oxford and Cambridge universities.

The women’s race starts at 3:44 pm and the men’s race starts at 4:44pm. But the coin tosses and other festivities start closer to 2 pm. Get there early to snag a good spot!
