Oxbridge Rowers in Colombo Assemble For the Boat Race

Dear Oxford Alumni Community,

I am pleased to let you know that, together with the Cambridge Society, we have secured the Colombo Rowing Club for this year’s Boat Race event next Saturday. This will be a joint OxBridge gathering, as is usually the case for the Boat Race. According to the official 2026 Boat Race information, the Women’s Boat Race is scheduled to begin at 14:21 UK time (18:51 Sri Lanka time) and the Men’s Boat Race at 15:21 UK time (19:51 Sri Lanka time) on Saturday, 4 April 2026.

Please note that the event is confirmed and will be held at the Colombo Rowing Club from 6pm onwards.

Warm regards,
Insaf Bakeer Markar,  Secretary
