Vendor registration for 2023 is now closed
Corporations and Vendors are invited to join us at the San Diego Crew Classic to cheer on competitors and interact with their supporters. Vendor Row is the place to be during the regatta—you’ll have easy access to the course and can enjoy hospitality and camaraderie.
Near Vendor Row you’ll also find the food court, merchandise tents, the Trade Show, beer garden, and the Jumbotron showing the races from start to finish.
Detailed information is found on the Vendor Tent Form.

Alumni Row
Alumni tent registration for 2023 is now closed
The Alumni tents are one of the crowning jewels of the San Diego Crew Classic. Teams come every year to watch their collegiate, junior or club teams race from the shade of our beachside tents positioned along the shoreline of the race course. Supporters can view racing, play in the sand, and enjoy hospitality and camaraderie with alumni, teammates, friends and family.
Near Alumni Row you’ll also find the food court, merchandise tents, beer garden, restrooms and the Jumbotron showing the races from start to finish.
Additional admission tickets to the regatta will be available closer to the event dates.
