Cowes Week, a cornerstone of the British summer sporting calendar, offers a unique blend of exhilarating yacht racing and sophisticated social events. This historic regatta attracts up to 1,000 boats and 100,000 spectators. For an unparalleled corporate Team Building experience, join us for a day of sailing, fine dining, and exclusive VIP treatment with our Cowes Week Hospitality Days.
The Perfect Start
Your Cowes Week experience begins at Port Hamble Marina at 8am. Here, you and your guests will be welcomed with a traditional English breakfast, featuring tea and bacon rolls while overlooking the picturesque marina. This sets a relaxed and welcoming tone for the day ahead.
A Day on the Water watching the action
At 9am, your skipper will provide a comprehensive safety briefing and boat familiarisation session. Whether you’re an experienced sailor or a complete novice, you’ll feel at ease and ready to embark on this adventure. Setting sail towards the Solent, you’ll find yourself perfectly positioned to witness the thrilling yacht races that commence around 10:30 to 11:30am. The sight of numerous sails cutting through the water is a spectacle not to be missed.
Lunch Ashore
Around 12:30pm, your yacht will dock at Cowes, where you’ll enjoy a sumptuous lunch in our dedicated VIP hospitality lounge at the Island Sailing Club, and a complimentary Gin and Tonic courtesy of our long standing partner, Salcombe Gin.
This exclusive setting in the heart of the Cowes Race Village offers a VIP experience, allowing you to savour delicious cuisine while soaking up the vibrant regatta atmosphere, overlooking the Solent. Alternatively, you may choose to have a buffet lunch onboard, catered to your preferences.
Afternoon Delights
Post-lunch, it’s back to the yacht for an afternoon cruise. As you sail, you can continue to watch the racing action unfold or simply enjoy the serene beauty of the Solent. The afternoon sail offers ample opportunity for informal networking, team bonding, or just unwinding in the company of colleagues and friends.
Exclusive Ladies Day
Tuesday of Cowes Week is designated as Ladies Day, celebrating the achievements of women in sailing. This special day encourages female participation and is marked by many women donning navy-and-white stripes. Whether you’re part of a mixed crew or an all-female team, this day highlights the contributions of women to the sport.
Our exclusive Ladies Day package includes a day of spectating the races and a delightful two-course lunch in our VIP area, along with opportunities to meet our lifestyle partners.
