The '''2008 European Rowing Championships''' were held at the [[Schinias Olympic Rowing and Canoeing Centre]], in [[Marathon, Greece|Marathon]], Greece, between 16 and 20 September 2008. They were the 2nd annual event after the decision made in May 2006 by the [[International Rowing Federation|FISA]] to re-establish the [[European Rowing Championships]].

Owing to a big storm announced on the Centre, all finales (A and B) took place on Saturday, 20 September and not Sunday, 21 September, as initially scheduled.
