Airlie Beach Race Week 2024 is fast approaching, and the anticipation is palpable as sailors and spectators prepare for this iconic event in the heart of the Whitsundays.
With more than 150 boats already registered, this year’s event will showcase an epic array of sailing yachts from trailer boats to Extreme 40s, making up approximately 16 racing classes.
Renowned for its thrilling races and vibrant social scene, this year’s regatta promises even more excitement both on and off the water.
One of the highlights onshore this year will be the Shoreside Long Lunch, a gastronomic feast featuring local seafood and produce, set on the balcony against the stunning waterfront backdrop of the Whitsunday Sailing Club.
This three-course ticketed event has limited numbers and is a highpoint of the Airlie Beach social scene year after year. Book your tickets now to secure your seat.
More onshore activities include the Creative Connections art exhibitions, showcasing works from local and regional artists that capture the essence of sailing the Whitsundays. Guests can even partake in onsite classes, including watercolour, pastel, felting and of course, Sip & Paint. Visit Creative Connections’ website for availability and booking.
Each evening, the Race Week Village at the Whitsunday Sailing Club becomes the hub of entertainment, with food vans, bars and nightly live music providing the perfect soundtrack to unwind after a day on the water.
With its mix of competitive racing, cultural events, and community spirit, Airlie Beach Race Week 2024 promises to be an unforgettable celebration of sailing and seaside fun.
