    Head of the River Amstel 2023: Once Again One Big Rowing Festival

    We look back on a wonderful Head of the River Amstel, March 11-12, 2023

    The skies looked to be stormy, but the weather gods favored us. Saturday brought us the beautiful spring sun and Sunday the wind stayed low. This to the disappointment of the coastal rowers, who participated in the Head for the first time. Two beautiful rowing days with more than four thousand enthusiastic rowers and coxswains, and more than one hundred and twenty satisfied volunteers.

    We look forward to greeting everyone again next year at the Amstel.
