Volvo Cork Week

Royal Cork Yacht Club, Crosshaven, Co. Cork, P43 HD40

Mon 06 Jul 2026 - Fri 10 Jul 2026


This year's event promises to be an incredible event, featuring over 120 boats and attracting 8,000 sailors and spectators to the harbour town for a week of thrilling races and maritime festivities.

Volvo Cork Week is not just about the competition; it's a celebration of coastal culture where sailors and spectators come together to share their passion for the sea. Attendees can look forward to a packed schedule of onshore events, including live music, local cuisine, a Family Fun Day, and Ladies' Day.

Racing will be spread across various challenging courses over the 5 days, offering competitors new challenges and opportunities each day, from longer coastal courses raced offshore, to 'Round-the-Cans' racing inside the harbour and multiple short races and Olympic courses laid in the open waters. The event will host the 1720 European Championships which will include over 30 1720 Sports boats designed in Cork, and there is a great charter opportunity this year with a fleet of RS21's participating.

This year's Beaufort Cup will be the biggest one yet, with entries from around the world including USA and Ecuador. The
