DESCRIPTION:This year’s Two Cities Boat Race between the Universities of 
 Manchester and Salford has been brought forward by 24 hours to Saturday 
 9 May.\n\nThe decision was taken after the Manchester derby match betwee
 n United and City at Old Trafford was switched to 10 May for live TV cov
 erage\, thereby clashing with the annual rowing regatta at neighbouring 
 Salford Quays.\n\nHaving consulted with participants\, volunteers\, poli
 ce\, suppliers and senior authorities in both universities\, it was agre
 ed that it would be irresponsible to proceed with the event on the origi
 nal date.\n\nThis year’s race will now be held on the afternoon of Satur
 day 9 May from 12.00pm. Unfortunately this means that the Dragon Boat Ra
 ces\, which normally take place prior to the regatta\, will not be runni
 ng this year. However\, the competitive races between Manchester and Sal
 ford will proceed in their usual format and all spectators are welcome t
 o come along and enjoy this free event\, now in its 38th year.\n
