The original plan
Nepal Tourism Board's May 5, 2023 notice announced the Nepal–China Friendship Dragon Boat Race Festival for June 23–24 in Pokhara. The board, China's embassy and Pokhara Metropolitan City were the principal joint organizers. The stated aims combined cultural exchange, people-to-people ties and tourism.

The board's 2023 review records the festival at Phewa Lake on those dates and identifies Team Sichuan as the final winner, followed by Team NARA. That later record turns an advance plan into a documented completed event.
A dragon-boat race is a crew sporting event; the festival also had a tourism and cultural program. Visitors considering a future edition need a current schedule, venue arrangements and travel information, rather than an old article saying an event is being organized. NewsCubby's flight tools can help with itinerary checks, while the World section carries later reporting.
