Henley Royal Regatta 09
Henley Royal Regatta 2009
1st to 5th July 2009
You know that the English summer is in full swing, with the first crack of tennis balls at Wimbledon and shortly after the Pimms starts flowing at Henley.
Henley Royal Regatta is a annual rowing and social event held every year since 1839 on the River Thames in Henley-on-Thames, England. A truly Great British Event, the Henley Regatta owes it’s Royal Patronage to Prince Albert who in 1851 became the Regatta’s first Royal Patron. Since his death, the reigning Monarch has always consented to become Patron of the regatta. As a result the event is called the Henley Royal Regatta.
