Auronzo International Ice Dragon Boat Festival  - 22 and 23 February 2020 – Misurina

Only a few hours before the beginning of the first edition of the Ice Dragon Boat Festival in Misurina.

 

Everything is ready in Misurina to welcome the teams and spectators for the first edition of the Auronzo International Ice Dragon Boat Festival. The boats, which are adorned with dragon heads and tails, arrived in loco only a short time ago and the final tests with the skates are being undertaken. These skates will permit crews of 10 paddlers to slide along the frozen lake.

 

“It will be a unique emotion” – say the organisers. “We are in a location of unsurpassed beauty, recognised by UNESCO as a World Heritage site. Racing at 1800mt above sea level, with snow lining the regatta course, it will be an unforgettable experience for everybody, participants and spectators alike”.

At 11am the Opening Ceremony beginning with the Italian National Anthem and a welcome to all the teams in the presence of the Mayor of Auronzo, Tatiana Pais Becher and other Authorities. A hockey demonstration will follow while the Team Leader’s meeting is held. The 100mt practice sessions will follow (while on Sunday the races will be over a distance of 150mts). The heats and the official qualifications will begin at 12pm. The finals will be held from 3pm to 4pm. The eagerly awaited medal ceremonies will be held with the amazing Bellunese Dolomites as a spectacular backdrop.
