Every 2027 sailing regatta we know of, month by month and country by country, plus the world and European championships and the big classics. Updated as clubs publish more.
FindYourSails · 8. November 2026 · Numbers update continuously
It is November and most clubs have not set every date for next year yet. Still, a good part of 2027 is already in the calendar: championships are often awarded years ahead, and the big classics run in the same week every year. This is where things stand right now, straight from FindYourSails. The list grows through the winter as organisers publish.
Right now our calendar holds 291 sailing regattas in 2027 across 21 countries. Most start in May, and 31 of them are world or European championships or international regattas of that weight.
