There will also be additional officers on patrol at the event which starts on Wednesday
Visitors to the Henley Royal Regatta have been advised that police will be taking a firm approach to incidents of anti-social behaviour.
In 2011 a Designated Public Place Order was used for the first time, which meant police could confiscate alcohol.
Forty-five people were arrested during the five days in 2011, up by 30 on the previous year.
Event commander Ch Insp Christian Bunt said police would again be taking a firm approach.
There will also be additional officers on patrol at the regatta, which starts on Wednesday.
