Get ready, sailors and festival-goers! The excitement is already building for the 2025 Festival of Sails, and it’s shaping up to be bigger and better than ever! With record early bird entries pouring in, we can’t wait to welcome a fleet of stunning yachts to our beautiful Geelong waterfront from January 25-27.
Following last year’s incredible festival, we’re thrilled to see so many sailors gearing up for another unforgettable event. This year, we’re particularly excited that the Festival of Sails isn’t sharing the spotlight with the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race, which means even more room for sailing action and festival fun along the waterfront!
So far, we’re proud to announce entries from a fantastic lineup of clubs, including Hobsons Bay Yacht Club, Sandringham Yacht Club, Cruising Yacht Club of Australia, Safety Beach Sailing Club, Royal Yacht Club of Victoria, and of course, our very own Royal Geelong Yacht Club!
We’re eagerly anticipating the return of legendary yachts such as Scarlet Runner, Ikon, Extasea, and Team Hollywood, along with many other incredible entries that are set to dazzle spectators on the water.
And let’s not forget—an amazing entertainment lineup is on the horizon, promising to bring a three-day music festival experience that complements the world-class sailing regatta. Stay tuned for more details coming soon!
Don’t miss your chance to be part of the action! Get your entries in now and prepare yourself for the best Festival of Sails yet!
