Only 160 rowers from foreign countries will come to the regatta. 4 countries participated in our first President's Cup, and 17 countries participated in last year's competition, this time 30 teams from 21 countries will try their strength."
According to him, this time at the closing ceremony, the performer Hiss will also give a concert in Mingechevir: "Many questions are addressed to us by the residents of Mingechevir. When there is a fun part in sports, people's interest increases. This ensures mass and popularization of the sport. This is used as a normal practice abroad. We have been using this method since last year."
It should be noted that the President's Cup 2024 international regatta, which will take place in the city of Mingechevir, will last from April 30 to May 3.
