Henley Attractions in, Henley

Henley attractions, local Henley attractions, Oxfordshire

The Regatta - is the biggest event of the year by far! 
The whole town is taken over, and if you have never been to a rowing regatta before don worry, it is a superb social occasion, and is part of the "Summer Season" for the socialites. A glass of Pimms in the stewards enclosure is a civilised way of enjoying the event.

The bridge across the river and the Angel pub are absolutely packed at this time, and a whole tented village springs up in the meadows along the banks of the Thames.

The Festival
Following immediately after the Regatta is the Festival.
Music, theatre, jazz, words and comedy in four venues - the Floating Stage, the Club and Towpath Marquees and the Crystal Palace Firework displays
A wide range of bars and restaurants.

River and Rowing Museum
The River & Rowing Museum was designed by David Chipperfield Architects to a brief which set out to establish an astonishing Museum. The building is raised on columns above water meadows beside the Thames and is built of exposed concrete and glass with a terne coated steel roof, clad in green oak.

The Museum has won numerous awards for its architectural design and innovative galleries including The Royal Fine Arts Commision Building of the Year 1999 and National Heritage/NPI Museum of the Year 1999.

The Museum has three main galleries devoted to the River Thames, the international sport of rowing and the town of Henley. There are also three special exhibition galleries, the Riverside Café, shop, Education Centre, library and function rooms.
