Events at Poplar RC

Poplar Blackwall and District Rowing Club organises a number of rowing events each year including Poplar Regatta and the Docklands Head, held at the London Regatta Centre, the Greenwich Head, a three and a half mile head race on the tideway in February, and the annual club sculling championships.

We also host a number of social events, including club dinners and summer parties. Our licensed bar is open on club nights and weekends facing out onto the river providing stunning, panoramic views of Greenwich and beyond.  There’s no better place to relax in after a hard row and enjoy one of the most spectacular outlooks in London.
