When the European Rowing Championship regatta was reinstated in 2007 it took place in Poznan, Poland. Rowing has staged European Championships since 1893 and it is one of the longest running sport championships on the international calendar. Now, eight successful years later, Poznan again is host to nearly 600 athletes from 36 European nations entered to race starting 29 May 2015.

Racing will take place on Lake Malta in the heart of Poznan. This is a prime international regatta course which regularly hosts international rowing and canoeing events.

The Rowing World Cup is an annual team competition, created in 1997, comprising three international regattas per year. A Rowing World Cup Champion is awarded in each boat class to the nation with the most points won in that boat class from the three regattas. Rowing World Cup regattas are held in the boat classes of the Olympic programme in effect at the time of the regattas. Each Rowing World Cup regatta also offers races in non-Olympic boat categories - these boat categories do not score points at Rowing World Cup regattas. In 2015, the Rowing World Cup series will take place in: Bled (SLO), Varese (ITA) and Lucerne (SUI).
