The Boat Race is a
rowing race between the
Oxford University Boat Club and the
Cambridge University Boat Club. It is rowed annually each Spring on the
Thames in
London. The event is a popular one, not only with the
alumni of the universities, but also with rowers in general and the public. An estimated quarter of a million people watch the race live from the banks of the river, around seven to nine million people on TV in the UK, and an overseas audience estimated by the Boat Race Company of around 120 million (although other estimates put the audience at a much lower 5 million. The first race was in 1829 and it has been held annually since 1856, with the exception of the two
world wars.
