SailGP returns to Halifax Harbour on June 20–21, bringing some of the world’s best athletes to the city. See the last slide for why it’s a big deal.

The F50 boats can reach speeds of over 100 km/h, making SailGP one of the fastest sports on water. Going 2 to 3 times faster than the wind.

Teams from around the world will race head-to-head in Halifax Harbour for championship points plus an $800k total weekend prize money.

Canada’s NorthStar SailGP Team will compete in front of a home crowd on Halifax waters. Making this the second time in history.

Fans can catch the action in select areas for a price or for free from viewing areas along the Halifax and Dartmouth waterfronts.

It’s a win for Halifax, as the Harbour transforms into a high-octane stadium, putting us on the global stage and boosting the local economy.
