    Event Description:

    Montana Dragon Boat Festival promises two days of excitement, pageantry and family fun, Sept. 10 & 11th, 2016.

    Held at the Lakeside Volunteer Park, the Montana Dragon Boat Festival has quickly become one of this region's most anticipated signature events. The 2012 festival drew 4,200 participants and spectators and was named the Montana Tourism Event of the Year.

    The ancient sport of dragon boat racing traces its roots to China, where teams of 20 paddlers, a drummer and steersman race in colorful, 46-foot dragon boats. Today it is the eighth fastest-growing sport in the world.

    It also has a unique following among breast cancer survivors, who find inspiration in the special team-building qualities of the sport.
