MainSource Bank Madison Regatta July 1-3

The MainSource Bank Indiana Governor’s Cup Madison Regatta presented by Belterra Casino Resort is run on the Ohio River in Madison, Indiana. The city of Madison has hosted the Unlimited Race annually since 1954 and offers great views of the most spectacular race boats in the world from the river’s banks. Fans also have access to the pits and to the drivers as well as activities for the whole family. It is great way to celebrate the holiday weekend. They also offer RV, Camping and VIP Tickets for the best viewing experience.

The town also owns and actively campaigns a race boat, Miss HomeStreet, on the entire circuit. The race inspired a 1999 Hollywood motion picture titled Madison starring actor Jim Caviezel, which documented the 1971 season in which the Miss Madison won the APBA Gold Cup race held in their hometown.

Seafair Weekend featuring the Albert Lee Appliance Cup August 5-7

One of the most popular events of Seafair is the Albert Lee Appliance Cup, which is held on beautiful Lake Washington in Seattle. The race attracts tens of thousands of spectators, both those standing on the public shores of the lake, and those in boats anchored just outside the course on the Log Boom. The same weekend, in a tradition restarted in 1972, the Blue Angels also perform their aerial stunts over the lake between races.

Make your way down to Genesee Park in Seattle August 5-7, 2016 to witness the World’s Most Spectacular Race Boats go head to head on the largest stage H1 Unlimited Hydroplane drivers will race on all season. Immense crowds, live television coverage on KIRO-TV and live radio broadcast of the races make this an event not to miss!
