The Sydney International Regatta Centre, located in Penrith, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, is a rowing and canoe sprint venue built for the 2000 Summer Olympics.〔(2000 Summer Olympics official report. ) Volume 1. p. 389.〕 It is now a popular sporting venue, with the Head of the River Regatta held annually here. Defqon.1 Weekend Festival Australia is also held here; as a newly established and reasonably popular hard dance music event Defqon.1 Festival requires a large venue which is somewhat removed from residences, making the Regatta Centre an ideal location. In May 2012 the second round of the UIM world powerboat championships for Blown Alcohol and 6 Litre boats was held here over 3 days and will return in 2013 It is part of the Penrith Lakes. The site is managed by NSW Sport and Recreation. == History == The Sydney International Regatta Centre was built as part of the Penrith Lakes Scheme which was designed to remediate the area and turn it into a recreational space after the years it was used to as a quarry for sand and gravel. It was part of the first stage to be completed for the scheme and was built in time for the Sydney 2000 Olympic games. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sydney International Regatta Centre」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
