The Royal Cork Yacht Club has announced the dates for its biennial Cork Week 2026 Regatta in Cork Harbour. The event is set to take place from Monday, 6th July to Friday, 10th July.
Since its inception in 1978, Cork Week has become a staple in the sailing community, known for its warm hospitality and competitive spirit. “This event is a sailing event for sailors, by sailors,” said the RCYC's Gavin Deane.
Cork Harbour offers diverse sailing conditions, with easy access to courses both in open waters and along the scenic coastline. The race management team is dedicated to ensuring a top-notch experience for all competitors.
Preparations are already underway for Cork Week 2026, with volunteers from the Royal Cork Yacht Club gearing up. Competitive sailing will cater to various boats and sailors.
A special highlight will be the Kingstown to Queenstown race on 3rd July, offering an exciting challenge before the main event. Boats will depart from Dun Laoghaire, arriving in Cork Harbour by the 4th.
The Beaufort Cup, hosted by the Irish Defence Forces in collaboration with the Royal Cork Yacht Club, will also feature during Cork Week. This international regatta will host crews from around the world, showcasing inshore and offshore racing.
The Notice of Race and accommodation options are now available online. Early entry discounts can also be accessed through the event's website.
