Lake Wheeler Invitational Rowing Tournament
Experience the thrill of collegiate rowing at the Lake Wheeler Invitational, an elite intercollegiate regatta co-hosted by Duke University and the University of North Carolina. Taking place on April 24 and 25, 2026, at the scenic Lake Wheeler Park in Raleigh, this event brings together top-tier athletes for two days of intense competition on the water. Whether you are a dedicated rowing fan or looking for an exciting outdoor activity, this tournament offers an incredible opportunity to witness high-performance sport firsthand.
Spectators are warmly invited to watch the races from the park grounds. While there is no admission charge to attend, please note that on-site parking is available for twenty dollars per vehicle. For those interested in being part of the action behind the scenes, volunteer opportunities are available, which include complimentary parking for the entire weekend. Concessions will be open throughout both days to keep you fueled. Please remember that bleacher seating is limited, so we encourage guests to bring their own lawn chairs for comfort. Join us for a weekend of community and athleticism.
