Abstract The purpose of this article is to shed light on the origin, evolution and present of the Seville-Betis Regatta, the oldest sporting event that is still being developed in Seville and the most important long-distance rowing regatta in Spain. For the historical review, a mixed qualitative method (interactive and non-interactive) has been used. In order to know the present of the Regatta, an analysis of the economic, social and sporting impact of the race was estimated. For the economic impact, a balance of costs / benefits was made, while to know the social and sporting impacts, a survey was carried out (Porras, et al., 2010) both to the attendees and to people living in Seville. The most outstanding results are that the Regatta in its beginnings suffered ups and downs and even disappeared for several years, however, it resurfaced again and is currently presented with almost sixty years of life, and fifty editions completed, and with a sports valuation by part of the city of 71%, a social valuation of 63% and an economic importance of 50%, so the valuation of the Sevilla-Betis Regatta as a sporting event is 57%.
