Welcome to the Stewards’ Enclosure.

Our Private Members' Club

Thank you for your interest in applying for Membership of the Stewards' Enclosure.

Established in 1919, 80 years after the founding of Henley Regatta, the Stewards' Enclosure was set up as a private members' club to protect the future of the event and to provide an exclusive area for rowing supporters to enjoy the racing.

Competing at Henley Royal Regatta is considered to be a highlight in a rower's career, and Membership of the Stewards' Enclosure gives the best access to this prestigious event. The organisation is overseen by a self-electing body of Stewards, most of whom are renowned rowers, scullers, coaches or administrators.
