In partnership with Destination Ann Arbor, Eastern Michigan University, and the Ypsilanti Charter Township, RowFest – one of the nation’s largest rowing community events – will see racing commence at Ford Lake, with community, learning and development, and social events hosted in the area.

RowFest 2025 will bring together the entire United States rowing community for flatwater racing and revelry. The regatta will include traditional racing formats for national championships for youth, under 17, under 23, open, and masters age groups, while also featuring sprints, relay races, cash prizes, and other experiences that rowers can’t find at other regattas.
