Row, Row, Row Your Boat Way back in 1965, Harvard University sculling instructor Ernest Arlett felt there was something missing from the local rowing scene. In his native England, “head of the river” races were all the rage, and he proposed a similar event on the Charles River where boats would compete in a three-mile race. Nearly 50 years later, the Head of the Charles Regatta is the largest two-day rowing competition in the world, and it’s back in Boston October 19 and 20. More than 9,000 athletes descend on the greater Boston area to compete in 55 different race events. The regatta draws hundreds of thousands of spectators to the riverbanks as well. One of the liveliest viewing sites is the Weld Exhibition at Harvard’s Weld Boathouse, where vendors sell food and other goodies. A more upscale experience can be had at the Eliot Bridge Enclosure, a ticketed tent with gourmet catering and a comfortable vantage point. Find out more at hocr.org. —Erica Jackson Curran

Bookworms Unite Bostonians are a bookish lot, so it’s no surprise that the Boston Book Festival is a highly anticipated event every year. Scheduled for October 17–19, the fest includes workshops, performances, author presentations and more. The keynote speaker is novelist Salman Rushdie (pictured) of The Satanic Verses fame, and he’ll be speaking at one of the festival’s only ticketed events on Friday. On Saturday, “You’re the Expert” brings together comedians Myq Kaplan, Brendan Pelsue and Robert Woo. Events are centered around Copley Square at venues like Trinity Church, the Old South Church and the Boston Public Library. A street fair in the square boasts exhibitors, kid’s activities and live music all day Saturday. The full lineup is at bostonbookfest.org. —Erica Jackson Curran

What Boston’s buzzing about Star-crossed Lovers 10.14.13 Boston Ballet transports audiences to ancient India this fall as they present La Bayadère October 24– November 3. The company returns to Florence Clerc’s staging of Marius Petipa’s tragic production three years after it made its world premiere at the Boston Opera House in 2010. First performed in Russia in 1877, La Bayadère follows Kikiya, a young temple dancer, and her lover Solor, a warrior. However, Solor is being forced to marry someone else, and the powerful High Brahmin is in love with Nikiya. Jealousy, bribery and opium-smoking ensues until the couple is reunited for eternity in the Kingdom of Shades. Attend the October 26 performance for a free pre-curtain talk with special guests, or go on November 2 for a talk with Boston Ballet Artistic Director Mikko Nissinen.
