GWN Dragon Boat is proud to present the 31st Annual Tim Hortons GWN Dragon Boat Challenge, taking place on September 12 & 13, 2026 at Toronto’s scenic Marilyn Bell Park. This event proudly supports Tim Hortons Foundation Camps.
Twenty paddlers move in unison, combining strength and teamwork in a boat whose elaborate design originates from ancient China. Social groups and businesses alike embrace the sport because it builds camaraderie, forms connections, and promotes healthy lifestyles.
Admission to this family-friendly event is free; races will begin at approximately 8:30am and will continue throughout each day. Festival grounds will offer a variety of activities for all participants and spectators. Families can bring their children to enjoy live performances, inflatable bounce houses/obstacle courses in the interactive Family Fun Zone. Grab a bite from one of our Food Trucks while wandering through the Health & Wellness Zone featuring exciting local products and services to assist in leading a healthy lifestyle. For all your shopping needs, stop by the Artisan Village and Vendor Marketplace. Last but definitely not least, the Left Field Brewery Beer Garden will keep the party going located right by the finish line with a live band performing on the main stage each afternoon.
