# Vienna Nightrow

Vienna Nightrow is an annual international sprint rowing regatta in Vienna (Austria) of the Erster Wiener Ruderclubs LIA for eights at night.

## Concept

A team of former rowers, trainers, functionaries of rowing clubs, referees and functionaries of the Austrian rowing federation have set the aim to promote the rowing sport in several media, so they tried to create a new attractive form of this sport. Vienna Nightrow is a rowing regatta, which is held on a 350 meters race course on the Old Danube in Vienna. The heats of the regatta start in the early afternoon and proceed to the finals, which are held in the dark and floodlight. Next to the eights, there are also rookie corporate teams which start in the quad scull.
