Rowing: Power in Motion

Discover how sport, science and innovation come together on the water!

Join us for an exciting rowing experience that invites participants of all ages to explore the science, teamwork and creativity behind one of the world’s oldest sports.

Aligned with the 2026 Research, Resist, Reimagine theme, our event encourages participants to discover how athletes train and perform, resist sedentary lifestyles by embracing active and healthy habits, and appreciate the importance of sports in everyday life.

Whether you’re an athlete, a beginner or simply curious to learn something new, you’ll have the opportunity to use our rowing ergometers for a hands on experience of what rowing truly feels like. Visitors will learn about local and international rowing competitions, athlete development pathways and all the physical and mental benefits of an active lifestyle, while exploring how physics, engineering, technology and human performance influence rowing.

Come row with us as we celebrate the power of research, resilience and imagination through sport!
