Watch the Boat Races begin from our prime vantage point at Putney Pier.

Enjoy the afternoon with other alumni and rowing enthusiasts aboard the PS Elizabethan, moored at the start of the championship course. Join Senior Pro-Vice-Chancellor Professor Graham Virgo and your fellow alumni to cheer on the Light Blue crews as they try for a clean sweep for the third consecutive year. Whatever the weather, see the crews warm up and enjoy refreshments from the comfort of an elegant replica paddle steamer.

Featuring a special guest speaker (to be announced), a glass of prosecco on arrival and an afternoon tea buffet with Pimm's, a ticket for this event would make the perfect gift for friends or family, or for any rowing enthusiast.

Once the crews are out of sight, watch the races unfold on screen from the saloon in the company of your fellow Light Blues.
