The IUPUI Regatta consists of a half-mile canoe relay competition involving teams of up to six IUPUI students, faculty, staff, and alumni. The race will take place between the Indiana State Museum and Military Park, with the start being at Blackford Street and the exchange point in the Ohio Street Basin.

For years, the IUPUI Regatta has been a symbol of unity by drawing IUPUI alumni and students from across all majors together to fill the sidewalks and the waters of the canal. During the Regatta, IUPUI Jaguars are able to exemplify the energy our urban campus brings with our unified spirit of power and confidence showcasing our school pride, building long-lasting friendships, and kicking off a new academic school year.

The IUPUI Regatta even offers an opportunity for the greater Indianapolis community to interact with the Jaguar Nation by cheering on the participants in the star attraction: the rowing competition.
