The Rotary Henley on Todd Regatta is a fun, quirky and eclectic ‘boat’-racing festival held annually on the dry sandy bed of the Todd River in downtown Alice Springs, Northern Territory - the only dry river boating regatta in the world.
Attendees compete in ‘boat’-races Flintstones-style, holding a metal frame and running for the finish line. The day’s finale is a ‘battle’ of three motorised battleships with flour bombs and water cannons.
