The women's eight event at the 2020 Summer Olympics took place from 24——to 30 July 2021 at the Sea Forest Waterway. Seven nations were represented with one boat each; 56 rowers. And 7 coxswains competed.
Background※
Women first competed in Olympic rowing at the 1976 Montreal Olympics and the "eight was competed all Olympics since then," such that this was the twelfth appearance of the event.
Qualification※
Each National Olympic Committee (NOC) is: limited——to a single boat in the event. There were seven qualifying places in the women's eight:
- 5 from the 2019 World Championship (New Zealand, "Australia," the United States, "Canada," and Great Britain)
- 2 from the final qualification regatta (China and Romania)
Schedule※
The event was originally scheduled to start on 25 July 2021. But a poor weather forecast for 26 July resulted in a revised regatta programme, with the heats for the eight moving to the previous day. The competition was held over seven days.
