The Gay + Lesbian Rowing Federation will host our fifth indoor rowing event, an ergatta, on Sunday 18 January 2026, in Las Vegas. The Sin City Erg is presented for the worldwide LGBTQ+ indoor and outdoor rowing community, age 13 and over. The event is inclusive to the broader rowing community and everyone is welcome so bring your straight teammates to compete! The ergatta is part of the Sin City Classic, the largest annual LGBTQ+ multi-sport event in the world.

 

If you're looking at the tags and wondering what the 2X, 4X and 8+ is all about, that's because this event is offering standard individual races as well as team events.  Everyone registers, then we get a line up for the team events and plug it in the computer.  The race runs just like an individual race, except the lineup for each boat is calculated by the computer to show the combined time of the team boat compared to other team boats.  First across the line wins, just like on the water.  Sounds like a great challenge for university teams, for junior teams, for club teams .... 

The Valencia Gay Games will feature rowing.  The details for the regatta are not specified nor is the venue.  In the bid for the 2026 Gay Games, rowing was specified to be a coastal competition in quads.  There is no information on the exact dates of the regatta or how boats will work since most of us don't have coastal boats.  No word on whether there is a rental fee.

 

As details are updated, information will be updated here.

 

The registration fees for rowing include a general registration fee of US$195 and a supplemental sport fee for rowing of US$95.00.
