Dating back over three decades,
Penang International Dragon Boat Festival is an awe-inspiring one, from the
multi-coloured boats to the steady beat of the rowers’ drums. It’s no wonder
that thousands of people, enthusiasts and entrants alike, flock to this
event. Originating from China, dragon boat festivals are now being held in
various locations around the globe.
Its history stretches back
thousands of years and is surrounded by traditions that are immersed in
ceremony and rituals. This event is fully supported by the Penang State
Government and is an affiliated festival of the International Dragon Boat
Federation (IDBF). |
