Since September 25th, the most beautiful sailing ships in the world have gathered on the French Riviera to offer not only sport but also a magnificent spectacle. For a week, the magic will once again operate in the sumptuous Bay of Cannes… The cream of the Classic Yachts will showcase their most beautiful attire for the 34th edition of the Régates Royales – Panerai Trophy.
The Régates Royales de Cannes, the ultimate event of the Panerai Yachts Classic Challenge, the most important classic sailing circuit, will give rise to an authentic sporting competition. A golden opportunity to dream in front of the majestic maneuvers of these units, some of which are listed as historical monuments.
The atmosphere at sea but also on land, every evening, the crews will meet at the old port to review the regatta and participate in challenges: sack race, painting contest…
“High-level sailing, conviviality, mutual support, competence, a whole combination that makes this event eagerly awaited by all. Competitors, skippers, crew members, volunteers, sailing professionals, and lovers of beautiful units enjoy meeting there. The finest are part of the Cannes adventure, and every time this meeting becomes unique. The largest rub shoulders with the smallest, and on the water, sportsmanship and fair play reign,” says Jean-Claude Montésinos, president of the Yacht Club de Cannes.
While the Régates Royales shine with the elegance and class of their sailboats, they are above all sporting events that attract an ever-growing audience of skippers, enthusiasts, or simply curious onlookers each year.
