Video Details

The Festival was created to show off Vancouver's growing cultural diversity and to promote racial harmony among Canadians - new and old. Vancouverites were invited to the festival to experience spectacular food, entertainment, arts and children's programming reflecting Vancouver's cultural diversity. At the same time, interest in paddling was taking off and more and more teams formed and registered each year.

Twenty one years later the Festival still fulfills its mandate to promote cultural harmony among Canadians. It has developed into one of Vancouver's most anticipated summer family events.

Recognized as North America's biggest and best, Vancouver's Rio Tinto Alcan Dragon Boat Festival 20th Anniversary was a true celebration of multiculturalism, attracting over 90,000 people and more than 180 dragon boat teams from across the Lower Mainland and around the globe.
