In addition to the competition, organizers will host a free public "sports carnival" featuring stage performances, a camping zone, kite-flying, rowing-machine experiences, and food and craft stalls. Spectators can watch the races from the riverside walkway at Hengqin Rowing Park. Organizers recommend using public transport, while those driving can follow navigation to "Hengqin Rowing Park" for on-site parking.
The regatta will also be streamed live across several online platforms.
