The Lake Champlain Dragon Boat Festival is a community dragon boat festival held in Burlington, Vermont along the shores of beautiful Lake Champlain. The Festival is a charity event that supports cancer survivors in our local community, including Dragonheart Vermont and a pledge partner–in 2024 Osher Integrative Oncology at UVM Cancer Center. We have three divisions for racing: Community Teams, Breast Cancer Paddler teams, and Sport teams.

Please note: Racing for Breast Cancer teams and Sport teams begins at noon on Saturday, August 3rd. Community, Sport, and Breast Cancer teams will all race the 200m course on Sunday, August 4th.
