The annual Boat Race between the universities of Oxford and Cambridge is one of the most iconic and prestigious sporting events in the world. This year's race takes place on April 6th, 2024, and the excitement is already building.

The Boat Race is a rowing race between two crews, one from the University of Oxford and one from the University of Cambridge. The race is held on the River Thames in London, and it is one of the oldest and most famous sporting events in the world. The first race was held in 1829, and it has been held every year since then, except for during the First and Second World Wars.

The Boat Race is a fiercely contested event, and both Oxford and Cambridge crews train for months in preparation. The race is always a close one, and it is often decided by a matter of seconds.

In addition to the excitement of the race itself, the Boat Race is also a great social event. Spectators from all over the world come to London to watch the race, and there is a carnival atmosphere in the city. There are also a number of parties and events held in the lead-up to the race.
