The New Zealand Sail Grand Prix is coming to Christchurch - a two-day spectacle of exhilarating races, intense rivalries and action-packed entertainment.
SailGP is live action sailing as you’ve never experienced it before. It has to be seen to be believed.
Watch huge 2 tonne hydrofoiling catamarans fly weightless across the water at electrifying speeds; 15 meters long yet vying for glory that comes down to inches at the finish.
Witness the thrills, spills, daring maneuvers and near misses as the boats push their limits racing through Whakaraupō Lyttelton Harbour.
SailGP is high-speed, high-tech and high drama all set against a party atmosphere and experienced up close – so close you can almost feel the spray on your face.
From ten teams over nine countries there can be only one winner. And the stakes have never been higher. The New Zealand Sail Grand Prix is the last event before the grand finale in San Francisco. Watch the athletes lay it all on the line and be there to cheer on Kiwis Peter Burling, Blair Tuke and the New Zealand SailGP Team.
March 18-19, from 4pm each day.
The New Zealand Sail Grand Prix will be hosted in the vibrant city of Christchurch. Racing takes place in the spectacular Whakaraupō Lyttelton Harbour, on the side of an ancient volcano under the guardianship of Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke Rāpaki.
Newly redeveloped to be New Zealand’s most modern, Christchurch is purpose-designed for exploration. Discover a revitalised city centre of boutique laneways and hidden gems, great shopping and endless dining options. Or venture further afield into a region of diverse landscapes and unforgettable experiences.
Catching the action from the waterfront, on the water or from the comfort of a hosted private area.
