About the Event
The Friedland Dragon Boat Spectacle is a comparatively young but rapidly growing sports and family event held in the Friedland outdoor pool. The organizer is TSV Friedland 1814, one of the oldest sports clubs in the region. What started as an idea for an extraordinary summer sports festival has, after two editions, become a summer highlight with a family atmosphere.
Format
It is a dragon boat race in the outdoor pool where teams compete against each other. Anyone can participate:
- Company teams
- Clubs
- Groups of friends
- Spontaneous water lovers
Registration is via email to [email protected], with the registration deadline usually at the end of April.
Atmosphere
Unlike many large dragon boat events on big lakes or rivers, the Friedland spectacle takes place in the manageable outdoor pool – meaning short distances, good visibility for spectators, and very direct, loud competition. Spectators can cheer from the poolside, while sausages, fries, and drinks provide a Volksfest (traditional folk festival) atmosphere.
Regional Context
Friedland is located in the Mecklenburg Lake District, on the border with Brandenburg, and is a main railway station on the Berlin–Stralsund line. The town is manageable (around 6,000 inhabitants) and particularly suitable for events of this nature: club life, the outdoor pool as a central facility, and a committed local community.
