About

Taking place on Saturday 19th September from Fawley Meadow to the Leander Club this illuminated boat parade in Henley on Thames is a fun evening of entertainment for the whole family and the Henley community.

The parade will welcome beautifully lit and themed craft – powered or unpowered which sail from Fawley Meadows up to Henley Bridge. The crafts are imaginatively decorated with themes including James Bond, Mamma Mia, Only Fools and Boats and more.

This year chief judges include Dame Mary Berry, Jerry Hall and Edd China.

May of the building and houses from the Bridge to Fawley Court are also brilliantly lit.

The exclusive, historical Leander Club throws open its doors to the public for this one night of the year, so everyone can come in and see the prize-giving.

There are also bars and food trucks available for refreshments, so it truly is a full evening of entertainment for the whole family.

Definitely an event not to miss.
