PRYC is proud to be home for the Main Games National Bell Boat Regatta. Organised and promoted by Andy Train and his team, this event has been a great success each year, and 2015 is set to build on that success.
The team at PRYC run refreshments, with tea & coffee all day, breakfasts in the morning, BBQ and ice cream through the afternoon. All the funds raised from refreshments help directly with running costs for the centre.

PRC will be organising several events through 2017 and will post details on this page as the planning develops
June 24th 2017 = Main BELL BOAT REGATTA
July 15th 2017 = Pershore River Festival
River Festival - 18th July
This is the BIG ONE for PRYC and for Pershore. To celebrate the opening of the new watersports facilities and changing rooms, PRYC are hosting the 2015 River Festival.
Genuine community event, in partnership with Avon Navigation Trust, Pershore Town Council, Wychavon Wetlands development and the Angel Hotel.
Loads going on including: 'have a go' watersports, stalls, refreshments, attractions, bands, beer tent, demonstrations on the water, and lots more. Should be a great day out and well worth poping down to have a look.
OH YES - and there are rumours that the VIKINGS ARE COMING...... (rumours of full on viking ships and viking hoard and could end in a battle!!)
Carnivals
PRYC join in the Carnival each year. As well as encouraging the young people into this community event, it also provides a focus for an ARTS PROJECT in the weeks leading up to the event.
This year there will be a PRYC/Riverfestival stand at the Abbey. Look out for the ANT vehicles and the lifeguards boats..........
