Have a splashing good time at Singapore Regatta Waterfest

Singapore Sports Hub will be holding the first Singapore Regatta Waterfest this weekend, bringing together local dragon boat teams that will do battle in a race.

You can cheer them on from 9am to 6pm at the Water Sports Centre.

To commemorate the event, OCBC Square will be transformed into a gigantic water playground known as the Waterfest Carnival, featuring myriad water-themed games and activities such as Bubble Run, Water Obstacles, Water Explorer, Stand Up Paddling, Splash and Dash and a Toddlers' Friendly Zone.

With the free admission, families and friends can enjoy a fun-filled adventure. Grab your picnic mat and bask in the sun at the Chill Out Lounge.

What's more, redeem an exclusive Splash Pack (5L waterproof dry bag, ice popsicle and more) when you check in at the Event Information booth on Nov 16 and 17.

As part of the Learn To Paddle programme, there will be two separate orientations - kayaking and dragon boating - at various timeslots tomorrow at the Water Sports Centre.
