Rainbow Races returns to Royal Albert Dock

Proudly hosted by the London Otters Rowing Club, this 500m, 4-lane race - part of Stonewall’s Rainbow Laces campaign - welcomes all to row, cheer, or spectate in support of stamping out homophobia in sport, with rainbow tees provided to light up the docks.

Everyone’s welcome. Whether you’re grabbing an oar, cheering from the sidelines, or simply soaking up the atmosphere, there’s a place for you. Rowers can participate with a minimum donation of £6 per seat, with all proceeds supporting Not a Phase, supporting our trans community through challenging times. Row hard, look fabulous, and do good.

When you’re ready to refuel, head to the Dockside Café, serving great coffee, cakes, and celebratory drinks, with profits also donated to Not a Phase.
