Rowing at the 1980 Summer Olympics was represented by 14 events.[1] It took place in the Man-made Basin, located at the Trade Unions Olympic Sports Centre (Krylatskoye district, Moscow).[2] The rowing schedule began on 20 July and ended on 27 July.[1]
Due to the Western boycott some strong rowing nations were not present. In that situation East Germany dominated the competition: they won 14 medals, including 11 golds, from 14 events.[2]
The quadruple sculls events, introduced in 1976, were again held without coxswain for men and with coxswain for women.[3][4]
