Big Changes for the Dutch Youth Regatta 2025

After nearly 20 wonderful years in Workum, we are announcing a major change: the Dutch Youth Regatta (DYR) will be relocating to Roompot Marina in Kamperland, Zeeland, in 2025.  We understand it may come as a surprise. However, after thorough consideration, we believe this move is the right choice for now.  The venue in Workum has a number of uncertainties in 2025. The biggest one is the construction of a new dam at ‘De Punt’.
We hope this move will bring fresh excitement and continued support for the regatta. To facilitate planning, we’re opening registration early for the 2025 event. We encourage you to register and help us create a fantastic event.
